Further, extracts were investigated for their antioxidant capacities using in vitro DPPH radical scavenging and FRAP assay.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The total phenolics (163.61 mg GAE/g), flavonoids (35.11 ± 0.53 mg QE/g) and tannins (84.52 ± 0.07 mg TAE/g) were highest in stem compared to leaf and root. Stem was exerted superior antioxidant capacities in both DPPH (EC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;3.58 mg/ml) and FRAP assays (1.742 ± 0.02 OD at 1mg/ml) and were comparable to standards. GC-MS analysis revealed total 89 chemical compounds including phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids and organic acids. 2-Methoxy-4-vinylphenol (0.70 %), 2,4-ditert- butylphenol (9.74 %), phytol (10.32 %), 5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone (11.42 %), gammasitosterol (8.32 %), salvigenin (12.09 %), solanesol, (2.92 %), and alpha-terpinene (4.58 %) were important bioactive compounds found in significant amount. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The present investigations indicate that various parts of &lt;em&gt;A. producta&lt;/em&gt; can be explored as good source of antioxidants due to the presence of phenolics and flavonoids. The meticulous assessment of bioactive compounds from&lt;em&gt; A. producta&lt;/em&gt; would be great contribution in field of medicine.&lt;/p&gt;
