Margherita (IPA: ˌmɑːgəˈrɪtə) is a census town in Tinsukia district in the Indian state of Assam.

The sub-district town is surrounded by hills, tea gardens, forests and the Dihing River.

Margherita has Tea Estates of the Williamson Magor Group (McLeod Russel India Limited).

The main communities of the area includes Assamese, Bengali, Nepali, Bihari, Singpho etc.

The name has its roots in the Dihing River Bridge which was built around 1880 by a team led by Italian engineer Chevalier Roberto Paganini who worked for the Assam Railways & Trading Company Ltd. From historical records, it is not quite clear whether the directors of that company renamed the place as a lasting tribute to that Italian engineer or if it was Paganini himself who, out of patriotism, christened the place in honour of Queen Margherita, the reigning Queen Consort of Italy.

The NH 38[4] passes through the town and is a stretch of approximately 54 km, starting point being Ledo.

With Rajdhanis and other long-distance trains running from Tinsukia, Margherita is well connected to the rest of India.

Margherita serves as a transit point to many parts of Arunachal Pradesh and buses ply regularly to and from Changlang, Miao and Jairampur.
