Many thanks, Saroj ji. Ruled out *Soymida febrifuga*, because it generally flowers in February/March and fruits much later, with maturation usually occurring between May and August. I could be wrong. I depended on Google's AI response - https://share.google/aimode/5s4MLXOnSlnPuxNfp For now, I have labelled the observation as *Chukrasia tabularis* A.Juss.
