We calculate the inclusive decay width of $\Upsilon \to l^+ l^-$. Then we get the ratio $R_{\tau\mu}=\Gamma[\Upsilon \to \tau^+\tau^-]/ \Gamma[\Upsilon \to \mu^+\mu^-]$ to ${\cal{O}}(\alpha)$ and ${\cal{O}}(\alpha_s^2)$ within the Standard Model(SM). Comparing with the recent Babar's data $R_{\tau \mu}=1.005\pm0.013\pm 0.022$, we find that SM prediction $R_{\tau\mu}$ is not consistent with the experimental data in the error bar. The discrepancy is about $1.25\sigma$. So leptonic decay of $\Upsilon$ may be a possible signature of New Physics(NP). We present a better approach to test the Standard Model, $R_{\tau\mu}(E_{soft})=.\Gamma[\Upsilon \to \tau^+\tau^-+X]/ \Gamma[\Upsilon \to \mu^+\mu^-+X]|_{E_X
