Vijaya-chandra (IAST: Vijayacandra; died 1169) was an Indian king from the Gahadavala dynasty, ruling from 1155 to 1169. He ruled the Antarvedi country in the Gangetic plains, which includes a major part of the present-day eastern Uttar Pradesh, including Varanasi. He probably also ruled some parts of western Bihar through his feudatories. He is believed to have repulsed a Ghaznavid invasion.
