Peljidiyn Genden (1892 - November 26, 1937) was a Prime Minister of Mongolia.

He took office on July 2, 1932. During a meeting with Joseph Stalin in 1935, Genden described the Soviet Union's actions in Mongolia as "red imperialism". Genden also opposed the Soviet crackdown on Buddhist monks in Mongolia.
