Dear Saroj,

I suppose that this is Alocasia fornicata (Roxb.) Schott.

There is now a very nice set of photos of Alocasia species at https://www.aroidpedia.com/

..together with many of the original taxonomic descriptions.

Best regards, Peter (I'm leaving next Saturday for Kolkata to join BSI conference on taxonomy, ethnobotany and botanical gardens. - if I pass my PCR test).
