Many thanks Garg ji and Varun ji for pointing to possible ID. I wish to draw your attention to the plant in my post dated Jan 30, 2026 · 4:53 PM IST <https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/YM2DQ4OyCEo/m/aIkI_rY3AgAJ> - observed a day earlier, just about 200m away from the plant in this post. The leaves are almost and quite similar. I urge you to check the possibility of *Garcinia gummi-gutta* (L.) N.Robson
