The present study was under taken to explore the potential bioactive compounds present in Tamarindus indicia bark which have been evaluated using Gas Chromatography- Mass spectrometry analysis. GC-MS analysis confirmed 31 chemical constituents have been identified. The major chemical constituents are 2-Methyl-Z,Z-3,13-octadecadienol (39.31) Glycerin(16.87%) Hexadecanoic acid (12.20%) 1,2-Benzenediol (4.07%) Phenol (3.17%). These compounds are very essential for the treatment of antibacterial, antifungal, hypoglycaemic, cholesterolemic, cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, gastrointestinal, hypolipomic and antioxidant activities.
