hi chandni, stage fright is a common problem even for great speakers. There are lots of methods to overcome this.
What i do whenever i have presentation,
1. Dress to die, i.e. suits, tie formal etc
2. Visuaize an auditorium in front of you, stand and do the presentation alone atleast 5 times the day before the presentation. This can boost confidence.
3. Carry small chits, which includes some important points from each slide, so in between the presentation if one got stuck also one can have look into this chit.
4. Do not think about grammar mistake while presentation, right or wrong continue till end.
5. One should by heart each and every slide, and 80% of the time you should face the audience not the sides
Before presentation if you nervous

a.Carry a perfume in a small container, smell it you can relax.
b. If you legs starts shivering do some exercise to your leg very slowly
c. Breath, breath and breath, slowly and gently, when you inhale count 1 to 5. then you exhale in the same manner.
