I too am doubtful about the id.
I have a feeling of Ixora brachiata
How big was the tree?

Giby

Thanks a lot Prashant Sir. Giby Ji thanks for posible ID. I have one more picture. Since the photograph was taken by my field asistant, i dont have much idea. But the tree is up to 3 m in height.

In Tarenna the flowers are 5-merous Stigma mostly  stigma fusiform or linear, sulcate or striate, shortly 2-lobed at apex (flora of China)  http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=132320 
Here my guess is either Ixora brachiata or I. nigricans

Thanks Giby Ji and Vijaysankar Ji for correcting me. This is Ixora brachiata. I have documented T. asiatica during my field survey in November, 12. Thanks Garg Sir for reposting the plant which has clear the confusion.

I think Ixora brachiata has globose flower buds.  These look rather more elongated in shape.  Some of the Ixora spp are quite similar.

I just looked up my notes. It could be I. pavetta (syn. I. arborea)
This species is found in hilly rocky places and also near streams.

There is no doubt, Garg Ji, it's not Tarenna, Ixora only.
