I have no idea since there was no indication at all. However, the plant was found 
attached  to a big tree.

Thank you.

I think petiole size looks small as per images at 
https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:853073-1
Pl. check 
https://efloraofindia.com/2014/04/27/ficus-hederacea/

It may be possible.

Thank you.

It looks different from Ficus sp. There is no milky sap.
Images shot today ! It looks like an epiphyte or parasitic plant.
Thank you.

From google : The leaves and stems of ficus produce a milky sap containing compounds that will upset your cat’s stomach and irritate its skin. Since cats tend to chew on houseplants, do your best to keep Milo’s paws far, far away from your ficus plant.
Thank you.

Some descriptions look different. Leaf size I have collected is 35 x 14 cm ( Very Large ) 
and it did not produce sap when I cut the branch. I have followed this for a couple of years but it never seen 
flowered. 
FoI : Leaves are 10-12 x 5 cm, leathery, base rounded or somewhat heart-shaped, nerves strong beneath and all running towards the point.
Can you suggest me the flowering phenology
?

Thank you.

Dear Varun Ji,

We have only Premna scandens Roxb. (Syn: Premna coriacea var. oblonga C.B.Clarke ).
I  guess it looks different. This plant is epiphyte and scandent. Elevation and leafing patterns look different. 
I had tried a few years for flowers but not yet been successful, but I shall keep on trying .

Thank you.

Saroj Kasaju

Dear Sir

Not sure (no flowers or fruits) but, it should be and close to Premna coriacea C.B.Clarke

Kind regards,
Varun
