I have gone through many literature and publications to identify these images which are similar to M.Sawmliana ji from Mizoram. And still working to get identified.
None of reported species match to these photos and as earlier I had told that there could be chances of new species or variety.
Since receptacles resemble Ficus auriculata and in various literature found much closer to F. oligodon considered to be synonymous.
Therefore there might be chances of new subspecies or variety of F. auriculata/oligodon with much linear and lanceolate leaves with serrations to upper 2/3 leaf lamina.
As per BSI and Flora of China F. auriculata and F. oligodon both are different species on the basis of leaf morphology, but synonymous as per TPL.
Kind regards,
Varun

Chances of F. auriculata are remote as leaves  are quite distinctive.

more i read about classification of Ficus order, more there is to read

start with this, Sourav
you also need to do some reading
you have access to the plant in question

we only have two pictures sans details 
references that should help you 
2 is "  Synopsis of the Genus Ficus L. (Moraceae) in India"   must be helpful 
this is about fruits of ficus genus and all its lower taxa
site devoted to classification of Ficus

and this is just a needlepont sized tip of the huu.....uuge iceberg...

good luck to all including myself
