The objective of the present study is to evaluate antioxidant and anti-hypercholesterolemic potential of &lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical screening of methanolic (VVME) and aqueous (VVAE) extract was carried out to identify the phytoconstituents. Antioxidant potential was evaluated by employing &lt;em&gt;in-vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; assays. The anti-hypercholesterolemic activity was evaluated by inducing hypercholesterolemia with high cholesterol diet for 21 days in experimental animals. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In VVME, total tannins, total flavonoids and total phenolic contents were found to be present in major amount. Both extract has significant in-vitro and in-vivo antioxidant efficacy. Different doses i.e. 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg of VVME and VVAE significantly attenuated the lipid levels. Moreover, VVME was found to be more effective as compared to VVAE and also, effectiveness was confirmed with histological results. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It can be concluded that antioxidant and anti-hypercholesterolemic efficacy of &lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; might be due to presence of antioxidant property and active phytoconstituents.&lt;/p&gt;
