Dears, Seems to be Segeretia filiformis. Fruits of this straggling shrub turn red and then deep purplish on ripening and are edible - slightly sourish but tasty. Local people in Himachal call these 'khat-mithu'. Regards,

The stem is smooth and bark-less like that of a guava tree. I am not sure that the evidence I have gathered is enough for an ID but it was worth a try. I will watch the climber of fruit/flowers for more clues. Please advise. Above Mcleodganj, Dharamshala, HP1800m11 January, 2016 Thanks.
