Whether the leaves vere tomentose particularly on the undersurface.  If so, then it is an excellent shot.

Respected members,

This is not Glochidion heyneanum.
It is Mallotus philippinensis ,as fruits are trilobate covered with removable reddish powder unlike G.heyneanum where seeds have shiny red colour and have 8- 14 lobes, leaves are also different from Glochidion heyneanum in newly appearing leaves we can see light pink colour shade which occurs in Mallotus philippinensis.

Regards
Ashutosh Sharma

Which one?

This appears to be a Mallotus. I will check.

[Tapas Chakrabarty]

= Mallotus philippensis.

[J.M. Garg]

Thanks a lot, Tapas ji 

[Aarti S. Khale]

To me also it appears to be Mallotus philippensis.
