Could it be Pittosporum moluccanum (Lam.) Miq. or some Randia ?

Dhanyawad Saroj ji, Prabhat ji. 

 

Not Pittosporum moluccanum , which is a small tree that grows up to 6/7 m only. This tree was 14-15 m at least.

And my guess is that this is a native as many specimens were growing deep inside the forest. 

This is certainly not Careya arborea.

Could be Tamilnadia uliginosa but leaves seem different. If anyone can explain this.

Need more help.
