In my experience, I have heard it spoken of as ખપાટ. The word ખાપટ reminds me of the Kachchhi name ખાપટો <http://www.gujaratilexicon.com/dictionary/gujarati-to-gujarati/%E0%AA%96%E0%AA%BE%E0%AA%AA%E0%AA%9F%E0%AB%8B/> for *Abutilon* spp. At the moment, I am not aware of any plant that is known as ખાપટ *per se* in Gujarati.
In his treatise વનસ્પતિશાસ્ત્ર (1910), Jayakrishna Indraji Thakar has delved into the etymology of the generic name ખપાટ for *Abutilon* spp. He deduced that it is seemingly indicative of the fruit that appears to be sawn into distinctly ridged segments (mericarps), each reminiscent of a wooden cleft/splint (known as ખપાટિયું in Gujarati).
