It is available as Jardiance Met in India.It is one of the good combinations of anti diabetic drugs. Metformin is the best anti diabetic if one has no gastric upsets, it has in fact shown to prevent cancer in some studies

You can take them separately. Jardiance and glucophage. Metformin doesn’t cause cancer.
