Leaves mixed up. It does not look like Butea. May be Derris or

some other.

Thank you.

This is not Butea.

[Mahadeswara]

I think there is a mix-up of 2 different species.

[Mahadeswara]

The first set of photos are not of Butea.  2nd set need to be examined with all other characters including the flowers and fruits.
