Plants have an endophytic association with a diverse group of fungi that help them accumulate compounds of therapeutic importance. In this study, we highlight the significant role of a genetically identified endophyte, Pseudocercospora hakeae from Curculigo orchioides in providing potent medicinal property to the host plant assessed through its metabolic profiling, various antioxidant activities as well as enzyme production. HPTLC profile of ethyl acetate extract, and quantification of total phenolic and total flavonoid contents proved significant production of secondary metabolites
