Harpalpur is a town and a nagar panchayat in Chhatarpur District in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.

It has attracted many businessmen from the nearby Uttar Pradesh town of Rath who have settled here. Although it is a small town it has a relatively large number of mustard oil mills and various pulse mills[citation needed].
