Mahipala (or Mahipala I; r. 988–1038) was a notable king of the Pala dynasty which ruled over much of Eastern India between the 8th and 12th century. He was the son and successor of Vigrahapala II. Mahipala's reign marked a resurgence in fortunes for the Pala empire whose boundaries were expanded as far as Varanasi. His rule was however temporarily hampered by the northern expedition of the Chola king, Rajendra I.[1][2]

Mahipala was succeeded by his son, Nayapala.[3]
