Date: 21st March 2015 I think Piper umbellatum.. Yes, it is Piper umbellatum (Tax. no. 18322, of ITIS), Formerly known by the name Pothomorphe sybpeltata, and by many other synonyms.
It is widely available as an undershrub in the evergreen rainforests of Western ghats too

Piper umbellatum L. … (family: Piperaceae)
Seen this plant hanging down from a big tree. Could be some Parasitic plant?? Date/Time: 19-01-2010 / 04:00PM
Location: Mabhige, North Karnataka Habitat: Wild. Lepisanthes umbellata, a climbing shrub of Papaveraceae. A new plant for me I had no ideae papaveraceae had climbers I see some confusion somewhere. Lepisanthes is a genus of Family Sapindaceae, trees and shrubs.
I see no match for Lepisanthes umbellata in IPNI, GRIN or even Kew Plant list
The only reference I found in the link indicated below, a member of Piperaceae, I think again in error
Extremely sorry for the error. Pls read as Lepianthes umbellata (L.) A mix up in excitiment. Lepianthes umbellata (L.) Raf. is now Pothomorphe umbellata (L.) Miq. and it is Piperaceae and not Papaveraceae. Hope now this is on dot. Yes … Now I know where the error lies in the link I had forwarded. Just a small doubt, “What we see in the photographs i posted are fruits, leaves or something else?” – They are flowers, or rather inflorences similar to Pepper. – I think we can see a few leaves in the last photograph. They should look like these:
http://www.plantes-botanique.org/espece_Lepianthes_umbellate Thanks … I don’t think i would have ever come closer to this ID myself. I was initially thinking it to be some parasitic climber.
