Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns. In presence of developmental delay early detection and early intervention is very important in order to bring her to the normal course of development. Moreover, she is also not growing well and that indeed is a cause for concern. There are different doctors who deal with such things. Based on your location, my suggestions would be to take your daughter to the following place:
Koshish Child development centre,
104 Garden Plaza, Besides Five Garden Society Gate, Wakad, XXXXXXX - 411057, Near Jagtap Dairy chowk , HP petrol pump
Wakad, XXXXXXX
+(91)-0000, 0000.

Alternatively you can take her to any other centre dealing with child development.
