Abstract: This paper provides an insight into the citation analysis of research 
publications of the National Metallurgical Laboratory (NML) during the period 
1972-2007. It analysed 2830 most valuable citations spread over 561 
publications made by the NML scientists and researchers indexed in Science 
Citation Index (SCI) retrieved through the Web of Science. It determines the 
research and citation impact using parameters such as extent of citation 
received in terms of number of citation per paper, year wise break up of 
citation, domain wise citation, self citations and citation by others, diachronous 
self citation rate, citing authors, citing institutions, highly cited papers and 
categories of citing documents, citing journals and impact factor. A Bradford 
plot constructed to determine the core-citing journals shows that the curve is 
a typical S shape which indicates subject maturity.
