Piploda State was a princely state in India at the time of the British Raj. It belonged to the Malwa Agency, part of the Central India Agency. The state had an area of 155 km².
Piploda was established in 1547 by Rawat Sawalsinghji, a son of the Rawat of Mandawal, as a feudatory principality of Jaora State. In 1924 Piploda became a separate state. The last ruler acceded to the Government of India on 15 June 1948, and Piploda became part of Ratlam District of Madhya Bharat state.
The rulers of Piploda State were Rajputs of the Dodia clan.
