Dear Mani Ji,
Pagoda tree is Styphnolobium japonicum and I feel this is not the tree!
As Ajinkya Ji said it Plumeria alba
Regards
Tanay

Looks like Plumeria rubra Linn. (Pagoda tree ) to me. According to Trees of Mumbai book the crooked trunk with blunt and swollen  branches matches with the pics. The flowers are upright  clustered from the tip of the branches.

regards,

Rashida.

Plumeria -Frangipani is also known temple tree or Pagoda tree as in South East Asia they are planted around Pagodas. But I am not sure if all varieties of Plumeria are known as Pagoda tree or some particular one.

My earlier input was based on the book 'Trees of Mumbai' which has mentioned  the description of the flowers as " The funnel shaped  flower is large, reddish white or fully waxy white with a golden centre."

In Trees in Delhi there is lot of  info. on Plumeria species . It is mentioned that there are 2 species of Plumeria in Delhi - Plumeria rubra there are four forms and within Plumeria obtusa there are two forms. Please refer to Pg 134 .

Rashida.

I think this could be Plumeria obtusa!! Leaf apex seems to be
obtuse.....
