Ficus tree is dying

My ficus pre bonsai plants are turning yellow and dying. I have already lost two plants by now and the new ones are also turning yellow. I have a Ficus Lyrata and Ficus Elastica in the same balcony and they are growing well. Can anyone please help me revive these plants? Thanks in advance.

Hi Girisho,

Welcome to the forum.

What kind of soil is it planted in? The soil is pulling away from the side of the pot and looks like hard, heavy clay.

It is the normal red garden soil, the common one here in India. All my other plants including Ficus Lyrata and Elastica are growing fine in the same soil.
