COVID-19 pandemic was started in Wuhan city of China in December 2019; immensely affected global population. Herein, an effort was made to identify potential inhibitors from active phytochemicals of  Pueraria tuberosa  (PTY-2) via molecular docking study. Our study showed five potential inhibitors (Robinin, Genistin, Daidzin, Hydroxytuberosone, Tuberostan) against M pro  and five inhibitors (Robinin, Anhydrotuberosin, Daidzin, Hydroxytuberosone, Stigmasterol) against TMPRSS2. Out of these, Robinin, Daidzin and Hydroxytuberosone were common inhibitors for M pro  and TMPRSS2. Among these, Robinin showed the highest binding affinity, therefore, tested for MD simulation runs and found stable. ADMET analysis revealed the best-docked compounds are safe and follow the Lipinski Rule of Five. Thus, it could be suggested that phytochemicals of PTY-2 could serve as potential inhibitors for COVID-19 targets. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
