List of Indian Women's League hat-tricks

Since the inception of the Indian women's football league competition, the Indian Women's League (IWL) in October 2016, 15 players have scored a hat-trick (3 goals or more in a single match). Till 6 February 2020, 32 hat-tricks were scored in the IWL. The first player to achieve the feat was Sasmita Malik of India who scored three times for Rising Student's Club in a 6–1 victory over Aizawl.

She is also the only player to have scored multiple hat-tricks in a single match. She has achieved this rare feat twice. She first achieved it while scoring 7 goals for Manipur Police in a 10−0 victory over SAI-STC Cuttack. She achieved the feat again while scoring 6 goals for Manipur Police in a 10−0 victory over Bangalore United. She scored her first three goals at the 3rd, 15th and 16th minutes of the match, thus making her the fastest hat-trick scorer of IWL.
