In this study includes determination of phytochemical analysis (qualitative and quantitative), antimicrobial study & estimation of total steroid content. Preliminary phytochemical analysis showed by presence of carbohydrates, glycosides, flavonoid, tannin & steroid. Total steroid content was found to be 2.67%. Antimicrobial activity showed good activity against gram positive and negative bacteria but in case of fungi shoed positive result against Penicillium brocae and sensitive to Aspergillus terreus.
