These variegated Colocasia spp. are really difficult to identify based only on the variegation. This is likely C. affinis as suggested, but both C. fallax and C. affinis are variable in their display of variegation, and we need to consider the possibility of as yet undescribed species also havin

Dear Sawmliana ji, This is clearly C. fallax in my view. The blade has a generally dark hue, and mostly rounded outline with distinct sinus. The pale blush, and purple patches on blades (not in your photo, but seen by me in Meghalaya) are highly variable, within and between local populations.
