Hi, Dinesh ji,
Yazdy Palia
I think it is Ficus Exasperata.
Please check up
http://groups.google.co.in/group/indiantreepix/web/ficus-exasperata?pli=1
We have quite a few of these at our place in wayanad in Kerala. It has
large abrasive leaves.
Regards
Yazdy Palia.

Here, the leaves look different, the tip, the venation. Not sure how the leaves are arranged on this plant.
F. hispida is the only Ficus with oppositely arranged leaves (thus one of its synonym, F. oppositifolia).
The cluster of figs here resemble the way F. racemosa bears. Here the figs seem to be hairy - not so in case of F. hispida.
F. hispida figs have a kind of prominent "crown" ... well, this may not be the correct expression.
Importantly, F. hispida is a small tree, say a large shrub.
Regards.
