I also bought Kentia palm along with this plant. I can see the spots on that as well.
Tried searching on the internet and the hint was that this could be bacterial blight. Can you please have a look and help me?

It could be bacterial leaf spot. Remove the affected leaves from the plant to prevent spreading. Here is more information:
