First of all the Hb level of 9.9 is not bad in Indian population. Secondly you should get investigations done from a Haematologist in a Medical College. There are other factors too which may not let Hb go up.
Dewormed should be done.

Your iron might not be absorbing from gut. Try injectable iron preparation in consultation with your local doctor

Need to discuss in detail to come to the conclusion. What was your previous hemoglobin ? Can you share your iron profile n b12 reports. Anemia can be due to causes other than iron and b12 deficiency too. Please consult me so that detailed discussion can be done to provide you the best possible advise.
