Gurcharan ji,

I am not familiar with native (wild-growing) Schefflera plants.
My posted plant is based on Shrikant ji's ID.
In Western Ghats, peninsular India towards n-e India, we have Heptapleurum venulosum (Wight & Arn.) Seem. ... synonym of Schefflera venulosa from what I found in Cooke's flora.
This species seems to be distributed to a larger extent than other.


Other natives distributed are (referenced from eflora of China and Nepal) -- for later reference:

Schefflera elliptica (Blume) Harms
shrub - (perhaps n-e India), Taiwan, Indo-China to Australia.

Schefflera pubigera (Brongn. ex Planch.) Frodin (syn. Schefflera bengalensis Gamble)
Himalayas to  s-c China

Schefflera elata (Buch.-Ham.) Harms
tree - 1800-2100m Himalaya (Kumaun to Bhutan), Assam, Burma, s-w China

Schefflera impressa (C. B. Clarke) Harms
tree - 2000-3400m Himalaya (Kumaun to Bhutan), s-w China

Schefflera hypoleuca (Kurz) Harms
tree - Dense forests; ca. 1300 m. s China, India, Myanmar, Vietnam

Schefflera racemosa (Wight) Harms
tree - endemic s Western Ghats



Looking at the purple rachis of your posted (and potted) plant, it could be Schefflera venulosa.
The reasoning is weak, please consider it as a guess.


Regards.

Nice picture and excellent work dear Dinesh ji, both Malayalam and English names are correct.  One more name should be added ചേലമരം chealamaram. Regards, Sam.

Thanks very much, Sam ji, for the appreciation, and for validating the Malayalam names / English spellings.
ചേലമരം chealamaram... I hope you can help me with  the source of the name. I could not find it mentioned in any of the resources that I refer to.
Regards.
