In 2005, Javed Akhtar was the single nominee, having all the five nominations of this category to his credit (and eventually winning for "Tere Liye" from ''[[Veer-Zaara]]'').

[[Anand Bakshi]] holds the record of getting nominated for consecutively 13 years from 1970 till 1982, resulting in 23 nominations and only 2 wins.
[[Anand Bakshi]] in 1981 lost all four nominations he received to [[Gulzar]] and in 1998 lost all three nominations to [[Javed Akhtar]].

[[Shailendra (lyricist)|Shailendra]] was the first artist to win this award in 1959. [[Shakeel Badayuni]] was the most successful lyricist in '60s with three consecutive wins. [[Verma Malik]] fetched two awards from '70s. [[Gulzar]] ruled '80s with four wins. In '90s [[Sameer (lyricist)|Sameer]] and [[Javed Akhtar]] both have three wins each. [[Javed Akhtar]] continued his domination in the 2000s with five wins. [[Irshad Kamil]] and [[Gulzar]] were the most successful lyricist of 2010s with three wins each.

[[Rashmi Virag|Rashmi Singh]] is the only woman to win the award in 2015 for "Muskurane Ki Wajah" from [[CityLights (2014 film)|CityLights]].
