Shape of the fruit is confusing me although leaves and other aspects appears similar to Citrus macroptera as per

But some images how similar shape as per

Wikipedia states as below:
The species is sometimes divided into four varieties, or alternatively into three separate species, as follows:[5]
  • C. macroptera var. macroptera
  • C. macroptera var. annamensis Tanaka -> C. combara Raf.
  • C. macroptera var. combara (Raf.) Tanaka -> C. combara Raf.
  • C. macroptera var. kerrii Swingle -> C. kerrii (Swingle) Tanaka
Pl. check.

On further checking, it is given as a syn. of Citrus hystrix DC. by Catalogue of Life.
Images on Google seems to match with it.

Going by keys between this (Citrus macroptera syn. of Citrus hystrix DC. as per POWO) and Citrus ichangensis (syn. of Citrus cavaleriei H.Lév. ex Cavalerie as per POWO) at BSI Flora of India and Flora of China and details, it appears to be Citrus cavaleriei H.Lév. ex Cavalerie.
