The '''National Chemical Laboratory''' (NCL) is an [[Indian government]] laboratory based in [[Pune]], in western [[India]].
[[File:ncl-pune.jpg|thumb|275px|NCL Pune]]

Popularly known as NCL, a constituent member of the [[CSIR India|Council of Scientific & Industrial Research]] (CSIR) India, it was established in 1950. Dr Ashish Lele is the Director of NCL and took charge on April 1, 2021.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-04-01|title=Dr Asish Lele takes charge as director of CSIR – National Chemical Laboratory|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/pune/dr-asish-lele-takes-charge-as-director-of-csir-national-chemical-laboratory-7254506/|access-date=2021-04-24|website=The Indian Express|language=en}}</ref> There are approximately 200 scientific staff working here. The interdisciplinary research center has a wide research scope and specializes in polymer science, organic chemistry, catalysis, materials chemistry, chemical engineering, biochemical sciences and process development. It houses good infrastructure for measurement science and chemical information.

[[National Collection of Industrial Microorganisms]] (NCIM) is located here and is a microbial culture repository maintaining a variety of industrially important microbial culture stock.

There are about 400 graduate students pursuing research towards doctoral degree; about 50 students are awarded Ph.D. degree every year; and the young talent pool adds in every few years.

NCL publishes over 400 research papers annually in the field of chemical sciences and over 60 patents worldwide.{{citation needed|date=May 2021}} It is a unique source of research education producing the largest number of PhDs in chemical sciences within India.{{Citation needed|date=October 2014}}

NCL researchers are the first Indians to receive the “Merck Young Scientist Award 2019” in Chemical Sciences recently at Bangalore instituted by Merck.

===PES Modern English School===
NCL has a primary and secondary school within its premises. Established in 1985 as the NCL School, it has since been renamed the 'Progressive Education Society's Modern English School'. Since 2006 it has been extended to include a [[junior college]].

===Dispensary===
NCL also has a [[Dispensary]] inside its premises which provides free of charge medical assistance to NCL employees and dependants under the CGHS.
