The present study reveals the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the major bioactive constituents of different parts such as root, stem, leaf, flower and latex of medicinally important plant Baliospermum montanum using seven different solvents. Qualitative study of Alkaloids, Carbohydrates, Glycosides, Steroids, Flavonoids, Coumarins, Saponins, Fatty acids, Tannins, Protein and Amino Acids, Gum and Mucilage, Terpenoids, anthroquinones and Phenols showed variable of results in different solvents. Quantitative estimation revealed that phytochemicals are in between the following range alkaloids (6.2 -9.5%), flavonoids (35.63-43.33%), Saponins (9.9 to 13.2%), phenolics (38.43 to 43.44%), tannins (13.26 to 18.3%), terpenoids (25.36 to 33.4%).
Author Keywords: Baliospermum montanum, Euphorbiaceae, Phytochemicals screening.

Abstract
The present study reveals the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the major bioactive constituents of different parts such as root, stem, leaf, flower and latex of medicinally important plant Baliospermum montanum using seven different solvents. Qualitative study of Alkaloids, Carbohydrates, Glycosides, Steroids, Flavonoids, Coumarins, Saponins, Fatty acids, Tannins, Protein and Amino Acids, Gum and Mucilage, Terpenoids, anthroquinones and Phenols showed variable of results in different solvents. Quantitative estimation revealed that phytochemicals are in between the following range alkaloids (6.2 -9.5%), flavonoids (35.63-43.33%), Saponins (9.9 to 13.2%), phenolics (38.43 to 43.44%), tannins (13.26 to 18.3%), terpenoids (25.36 to 33.4%).
