Thanks Garg ji.

I have made a terrible mistake by considering the plant as Porpax sp. !!
One of my flickr friend Nimal Kumar alerted me with the corrected ID: Peperomia tetraphylla of Piperarceae.

Regards.

Dear Pankaj, I mistook the plant totally.
I got to know only when I got a comment in my flickr photostream.
Yes, the plant belongs to Piperaceae, Peperomia tetraphylla.
Thanks and regards.

Dear friends,
Many thanks to Dr Guido Mathieu, Peperomia taxonomist, has corrected the ID to Peperomia emarginatifolia J.Mathew in my post at iNaturalist.

I found a reference paper by Jose  Mathew,  Radhamany  P  Madhavan,  Pichan  M  Salim,  Kadakasseril  V  George.  Two  new  species  of  Peperomia Ruiz  &  Pav. (Piperaceae) from South Western Ghats, India. Species, 2018, 19, 162-166

Regards.
Dinesh
