Locality: Maharajganj

Date: 12-08-2018

Habit: climber

Altitude: 95 m

Note: Taste of leaves not much bitter. After chewing leaves one can
feel taste of sugar. Therefore, I doubt it is ‎Gurmar (Gymnema
sylvestre). It also does not match with
Gymnema montanum.

As the sugar test failed it is not G.sylvestris.  Check for other species.

It appears to be Gymnema inodorum (G.tingens).
