The usage of medicinal plants in traditional medicinal system is the vital process of India. Diabetes Mellitus is a systemic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia, abnormal elevated levels of lipid and fat in blood and hypoinsulinaemia. The current epidemic of diabetes indicates the need of proper and effective medications that are limited in their potency to have many side effects. Thus, introduction of alternative and complementary medicine is now in picture. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The main objective of this work is to evaluate the &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; anti diabetic activity of methanolic extracts of &lt;em&gt;Indianthus virgatus&lt;/em&gt; (Roxb.) Suksathan and Borchs in skeletal muscle cell line. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;cytotoxicity was performed for leaf extract (Methanol) on L-6 (Rat skeletal muscle) cell line to find toxic concentration of the leaf extract by MTT assay. Glucose uptake activity of test substance was determined in differentiated L-6 cells. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In Glucose uptake assay, Methanol Extract exhibited moderate toxicity to skeletal muscle cell line and glucose uptake assay it shows dose dependent glucose uptake. Glucose uptake rate increased with the increasing concentration of the leaf extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results of the current study clearly demonstrated the antidiabetic potency of methanolic leaf extract obtained from &lt;em&gt;Indianthus virgatus &lt;/em&gt;(Roxb.) Suksathan and Borchs. under &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;model.&lt;/p&gt;
