Talab Tillo is an urban area in Jammu City, in the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. It is a busy residential and commercial neighborhood with historical and cultural importance. The name comes from a saint named Tilloo and a nearby pond (talab in Dogri). It used to be called Tillo Talab, but over time the name changed to Talab Tillo.

Located in the western part of Jammu City, it is bordered by Bohri, Canal Road, and Bakshi Nagar, and is close to Akhnoor Road, which connects to many parts of the city and nearby districts.

Most residents are Dogras who speak Dogri. In schools, Hindi and Urdu are taught and used in formal settings, while English is common among educated people. Among the youth, Hindi is increasingly replacing Dogri.

Kashmiri is spoken by Kashmiri Pandit refugees who settled here, and by a small number of Kashmiri Muslims.

Talab Tillo has several educational institutions, many hospitals and clinics, and various religious centers. It is well connected by roads and public transport to other parts of Jammu and nearby regions.
