The shrub is reminiscent of some Caesalpinia species but the stamens are rather short. Certainly Caesalpiniae.

Prashanth ji,
Could this be a species of Caesalpinia possibly Caesalpinia ferrea.   I am unable to confirm as the  flower structure need to be checked  as the individual flowers are not seen very clearly.     Furthermore, if it is C.f.  the bark is very very unique.
 In which park in T Nagar did you photograph.

I guess Caesalpinia ferrea is correct!
Thank you
