Inde: Ragas de Jaipur is a 2010 Indian classical music album by sitarist Rajeev Janardan. The album presents traditional Hindustani ragas performed on sitar. It was released on January 1, 2010, under an unspecified label.

Rajeev Janardan performs five tracks on the album. The first track, Alap, introduces the raga in a slow, meditative exposition without rhythmic accompaniment. The second track, Jod - Jhalla, transitions into a rhythmic pulse and builds intensity through rapid strumming patterns. The third track, Vilambit Gat Teental, features a slow composition set to a 16-beat cycle. The fourth track, Drut Gat Teentaal, shifts to a faster tempo in a 16-beat rhythmic structure. The fifth and final track, Raga Bhairavi Drut Teental, concludes the album with a lively rendition of Raga Bhairavi in a fast 16-beat cycle.

The album adheres to the traditional structure of Hindustani classical music, emphasizing improvisation within the framework of each raga. The specific ragas performed on the album are not explicitly listed in the available context. The recording captures live instrumental performance without additional accompaniment beyond the sitar.
