An excited state of $^{12}$C having excitation energy E$_x \sim$ 9.65 $\pm$0.02 MeV and width (FWHM) $\sim607\pm$ 55 keV, which decays to three $ \alpha$-particles via Hoyle state ($E_x \sim$ 7.65 MeV), has been directly identifiedfor the first time in the exclusive inelastic scattering of 60 MeV $^{4}$He on$^{12}$C, measured in coincidence with the recoiling $^{12}$C$ ^* $ Hoyle state(decaying mostly as $^{12}$C$ ^* $ $\rightarrow \ ^{8} $Be + $ \alpha $$\rightarrow \ \alpha + \alpha + \alpha$) by event-by-event kinematicreconstruction of the completely detected (4$ \alpha $) events. This state islikely to be a candidate for 2$_2^+$ first excited Hoyle state, the existenceof which has recently been indirectly evidenced from the recent inclusiveinelastic scattering studies.
