Sjogren Larsson Syndrome (SLS) is an uncommon autosomal recessive disorder characterized by intellectual disability, congenital icthyosis and spastic diplegia. Here we report three siblings with SLS  from an Indian family with no history of consanguinity. One sibling had unusual features of spasticity and tremors in upper limbs.
