Titagarh, city, southeastern West Bengal state, northeastern India. It lies just east of the Hugli (Hooghly) River, about 15 miles (25 km) north of central Kolkata (Calcutta), and is part of the Kolkata urban agglomeration.

The city was once a fashionable residential district for Europeans. Titagarh was constituted a municipality in 1895, when it was separated from Barrackpore municipality. Connected by road and rail with Kolkata, its major economic activities include jute and paper milling, glassmaking, the manufacture of textile machinery and transport equipment, and tea processing. Mother Teresa established a leprosy care centre in the city in 1958. Pop. (2001) 124,213; (2011) 116,541.
