The present disclosure relates to a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system comprising a pro-catalyst, a co-catalyst and a selectivity control agent. The pro-catalyst comprises a magnesium compound, a titanium compound and a multi-dentate internal donor, wherein the internal donor is tetraethyl 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-2,2′,3,3′-tetrahydro-1,1′-spirobiindane-5,5′,6,6′-tetracarbonate. The present disclosure further relates to a process for polymerization of an olefin using the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system. The Ziegler-Natta catalyst system of the present disclosure shows very high hydrogen response and thus can be used to produce low to high molecular weight polyolefin.
