The recent observations of the purely leptonic decay \Ds→μ+νμ and τ+ντ at CLEO-c and B factory may allow a possible contribution from a charged Higgs boson. One such measurement of the decay constant fDs differs from the most precise unquenched lattice QCD calculation by 4 σ level. Meanwhile, the measured ratio, BR(\Ds→μ+νμ) / BR(\Dp→μ+νμ), is larger than the standard model prediction at 2.0σ level. We discuss that the precise measurement of the ratio BR(\Ds→μ+νμ) / BR(\Dp→μ+νμ) at BES-III will shed light on the presence of new intermediate particles by comparing the theoretical predictions, especially, the predictions of high precise unquenched lattice QCD calculation.
