I got this plant from someone and was told it is Ram Tulsi (Ocimum Sanctum). But It does not seem to look like it. Can you please help determine ?

I'm not sure if it's Holy Basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum) - Synonym Ocimum sanctum. The leaves of your plant appear quite dark in coloration to photos in our database but hopefully someone will be able to confirm an ID.

This is indeed holy basil but it is of the Kapoor variety.
