Present investigation was undertaken in order to analyse bioactive constituents present in Tephrosia pentaphylla by using High Resolution- Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (HR-LCMS). The study revealed the presence of secondary metabolites like alkaloid (Ruspolinone), Flavonoids (5,7,4’-Trimethoxyflavan), Coumarin (Dihydrosamidin), tetranortriter penoid (Swietenine) and Phenolic compounds.
