Great Navendu ji, thank you very much for the Genus ID.  It's aromatic smell and taste  of leaves, fruits and young shoot are something close to Glycosmis pentaphylla (my ID request #35).
With kind regards, Sam.

Thanks a lot dear Giby ji for ID my plant.  It is very close to Glycosmis albicarpa, but I observed some differences: leaves are odd pinnate and seed is greenish ovoid.  Please check collage, left images are of mine.  With kind regards, Sam.
