Provided is a ketoreductase mutant and applications thereof. Compared with an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, the amino acid sequence of the ketoreductase mutant includes at least one of the following mutation sites: L198P, S96W/I/L/V, M194L or L1526, herein "/" means "or." The ketoreductase mutant provides high selectivity and high activity with respect to a substrate ketone, and the application of the mutant in a catalytic reduction reaction of a ketone substrate may increase the production efficiency of a chiral alcohol compound corresponding thereto.
