Nice Pictures! Not only the leaf bases are unequal but one side of the leaf is more or less *gibbous* (swollen on one side or humped). Here the second picture somewhat (more or less) shows that character. Further, small tree, 3-ribbed at leaf base, and smaller figs (usually about 0.6-0.9 cm in diameter) that are yellow when ripe scabrid (having a rough or scaly surface) are characters of F. gibbosa.
Hence this species is *F. gibbosa *of Moraceae family. Again, according to "the plant list" the new name of *Ficus gibbosa* is* Ficus* *tinctoria* subsp. *gibbosa* (Blume) Corner.
