Thanks Garg Ji, Varun Ji, Usha Di 🙏 Compared the link Ficus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/m/moraceae/ficus> you given , but, at time, could not conclude it as Ficus microcarpa, because attached pictures does not have such bright red leaves as in our Ficus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/m/moraceae/ficus> link. If looked carefully at attached DSCN7255_Scaled_CR.jpg, it seems red color still left into the leaves. It seems,young leaves were red and now they turned green. As per info in few books, red colors are due to pigments to repel insects from foraging on leaves. And in December, there are no much insects available in nature. May be reason leaves are not very brightly coloured. Please correct if going wrong. Leaf shape, venation, apex, petiole, leaf base exactly match with our Ficus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/m/moraceae/ficus> link. Fruits are arising from auxiliary position of leaves in attached pictures and in our Ficus <https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/m---z/m/moraceae/ficus> link. So Ficus microcarpa is matching with attached pictures. Thanks Sharmila
