dc.description.abstract	The Indian Institute of Astrophysics is deliberating the development of a 2-m class Solar telescope called NLST (National Large Solar Telescope) at Merak, Ladakh. It will be equipped with an adaptive optics system to realize its full potential. In preparation for the same, we are developing an AO/MCAO system for the existing 38cm Kodaikanal Tower Telescope (KTT) at Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu. The MCAO system uses two deformable mirrors conjugated to the pupil plane and one high-altitude layer (3km). We will discuss the design aspects of our AO and MCAO systems	en_US
