Cassia alata is a lesser exploited plant for its biological activity due to its greater ornamental value which always cover medicinal applications. In the present study, Nanoparticle fabrication ability of the leaf extract was exploited for the successful synthesis of silver nanoparticles. It was observed that the extract could mediate the synthesis nanoparticle in lesser time with a high synthesis rate. Major phytocomponents present in the extract was analyzed and high percentage of phenolic compounds were observed, however there were traces of tannins, saponins etc. phytocompounds were found to facilitate free radical scavenging ability of the extract. From the analyzed parameters such as H2O2 scavenging activity, super oxide radical scavenging, lipid peroxidation inhibition activity and DPPH assay, it was evident that extract possess high degree of antioxidant capacity, which was found to be proportional to its concentration.
