Thanks Dr. Garg, Dr. Satish, Anil ji. I went to see the tree again today to see if maybe the buds had flowered but they were in the same state. Will share updated pictures in a few weeks once there are visible changes.

An important feedback from Navendu ji

"This plant has compound, pinnately three foliolate leaves. This rules out Memecylon. Its likely to be some member of Rutaceae but inflorescence is not terminal. Open flowers might give a better clue"

Yes, Melicope elleryana from me as well.
When I suggested Leea Species, ! had not seen Melicope elleryana. 
Saw it later at Lalbagh, Bangalore.
