No, not M. tetracoccus.

[Gurcharan Singh]

Perhaps this key based on Fl. of China and Flora of Thailand should help

Female inflorescence unbranched, fruit densely softly spiny, 15 mm across.........M. nepalensis

Female inflorescence branched, fruit 10 mm across...........................................2

Fruit 3-locular, with few (ca 30) 4-5 mm long spines;  leaf base cuneate, broadest

    in portion from lower third to middle, basal glands 2, basal veins 3-5................M. paniculata 

Fruit 4-locular (commonly), with numerous (ca 100) short less than 3 mm long 

    spines; leaf base rounded or truncate, broadest below lower third, basal 

    glands 2-4, basal veins 3............................................................................M. tetracoccus

May be Tapas ji has better key from his book.

Fruiting  specimens will reveal the true identity.  Till then I call it Mallotus nepalensis var. nepalensis.

Mallotus ferrugineus (syn. M, tetracoccus) has pyramidal-paniculate inflorescences which the present sample is lacking.  It is not possible for me to resolve the problem or question unless I see the fruiting material.

[J.M. Garg]

To me appears close to images and details at Mallotus tetracoccus

Both WCSP & Catalogue of Life give Mallotus ferrugineus as its synonym.
