My rubber tree tineke that I ordered online looked fine the day it arrived and I immediately transplanted it to a new pot with holes. I did not watered as I want the plant to settle first on its new environment.
A day after, I watered it thoroughly and misted the leaves.
On Sunday, I observed that the tip of one leaf started browning. Later, the side of the plant near the tip started browning as well.
Good thing I took a photo of the leaves of the plant a day before, and it seemed to have tiny yellow and brown spots already. You can see it in the before and after photo I attached. The browning in the leaf is progressing rapidly.

A browning also occurred on the side lowest leaf but this one did not have any spots as far as I can tell.
Ive attached photos of the overall look of the plant as well as the parts that have issues.

Can you help me identify this issue please and tell me what i can do to help this plant? I really love this plant and I want it to grow.
