Mahendra was a king of Dakshina Kosala, whose identity is not completely verified, and is mentioned as a king of Dakshinapatha.

His dynasty is uncertain, though some historians suggest that he was from the Mahameghavahana dynasty. Other theories suggest that he was a king of a branch the Ikshvaku dynasty, who had established a mighty kingdom in the south.
