Forwarding again for Id assistance please. Some earlier relevant feedback: “I am not sure but this looks like Chard, *Beta vulgaris* subsp. cicla.” from Pankaj ji.
“I thought it was a crucifer.” from Singh ji. “I also thought the same, but it is not. There are two small plants just below our office balcony planted by someone. Commonly used in chinese curry or salad or just like that :P... Here is a bad pic taken for you just now.” from Pankaj ji. "Chard I think looks much different from my plant. I will check my plant in a few days, hope it flowers. I am pretty sure *it is a crucifer*, unless my memory is failing with age. Wish I had recorded its name when I knew it." from Singh ji.
