I think it should be Solena heterophylla Lour. as per DeWilde_Solena_Blumea2004 (1).pdf

Also as there are ridges on the fruit, it should be Solena umbellata (Willd.) W.J. de Wilde & Duyfjes.

Garg ji, I see the fruits without angles or ridges, at least not pronounced enough.

Would this not be amplexicaulis ?

Regards.

Dinesh

[J.M. Garg]

Dinesh ji,

Ridges are there, but seen very fine at this ripe stage. See images of S.heterophylla fruits to differentiate.

S.amplexicaulis fruit is totally different. See efi site and the publication.
