Sikandar Shah Suri (died 1559) was the last ruling Sultan of Hindustan from the Suri dynasty from February 1555 until his defeat on 22 June 1555, and the second-tp-last ruler of the Suri dynasty. His defeat by Humayun and loss of Delhi marked the end of the Suri dynasty's 15-year rule over the throne of Hindustan, although the Suris continued to rule the eastern portions of the empire for another year.
