The '''Wagad Formation''' is a [[Mesozoic]] [[Late Jurassic]] geologic [[Formation (geology)|formation]] in [[India]]. Fossilised [[sauropod]] and [[ornithopod]] tracks have been reported from the formation.<ref name="dinosaurdistribution">Weishampel, et al. (2004). "Dinosaur distribution." Pp. 517-607.</ref><br />
