Cerbera Species with darker flowers seen at this cultivated garden in Thane.
I was told the ripe fruit is dark purple from inside.
Also that this tree is found in the coastal region.

i have  seen this in some of my travels
same as what we have in the Ganges delta, 
but only red  tinged leaves and fruits and flowers
what i remembered most is the red veins  of the slightly broader leaves

Cerbera odolllam rubra

for the plant i had seen

Thanks, Ushadi.
Keys are available as per Flora of Singapore & UBC Botanical garden forum & cookislands flower photos: There is much debate as to the importance of the eye colour, which seems to be the only feature separating the two species.Cerbera odollam can be readily told apart by the yellow-centred flowers vis-à-vis initially orange-pink, but becoming red to purple with age for as per cookislands flower photos;

In view, images given in i found a link, should be a cultivar/ hybrid of Cerbera manghas L.
