Provided is an organic EL device having a low drive voltage, high efficiency, and high drive stability, and a material for an organic electroluminescent device suitable for the organic EL device. This material for an organic EL device includes: an indolocarbazole compound represented by General Formula (1).In addition, provided is an organic electroluminescent device in which this material for an organic electroluminescent device is used as a first host and carbazole compounds are used as second hosts.Here, a ring A is a heterocyclic ring represented by Formula (1a), L<sup>1</sup> to L<sup>3</sup> are a direct bond, an aromatic hydrocarbon group or an aromatic heterocyclic group, B<sup>1</sup> to B<sup>3</sup> represent a direct bond or a biphenyldiyl group represented by Formula (1b), and at least one of B<sup>1</sup> to B<sup>3</sup> is a biphenyldiyl group. |
