Core Tip	Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and liver involvement had been a major concern since beginning of COVID-19 pandemic. Deranged liver functions with raised transaminases were reported in patients with severe COVID-19 disease. On the other hand, acute hepatitis or liver failure was uncommon. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 virus associated cytokine surge, systemic inflammation, direct viral infection, drugs like remedisivir, steroids, lopinavir-ritonavir were main causative factor for raised transaminases. Patients with pre-existing chronic liver diseases especially non-alcoholic fatty liver disease were found to be risk factor for causing increased mortality in patients with severe COVID-19 disease.
