if it's native to india then it might be something like rhaphidophora pertusa.  monsteras are only native to the americas, as far as i know.

Thank you. Since I found it growing on rocks, it must be Rhaphidophora pertusa.

"Monstera was introduced to India in 1878"  , so you never know someday you may come across one there.
