>From the discussions above, I will go for Ficus microcarpa. 'Trees of Delhi' states it to be confusing with Ficus benjamina. It states Ficus benjamina leaf ends in a short but promonent, pointy apex; it has few or no aerial roots; its figs are larger & bright yellow or orange-red. It states Ficus microcarpa leaves have a round or bluntly pointed apex; it has arial roots that do not hang down; and its tiny figs are yellowish brown. I had confusion regarding fruit colour, which Kenneth ji clarified.
