I think it is T tricuspidata only
Commonly known as Kanchan Ki Bel in Central and Northern Haryana. It is an important veterinary medicine. Its seed are largely used to give to cattles to promote them for to be in reproductive cycle.
Two days back My Father brought its ripened fruit and when I saw its seeds embeded in a deep green fleshy tissue, I was surprised to see the combination of colour of outside and inside of the fruit. Then with my Father I went to the spot and again search the literature to confirm its identity. Offcourse I found it is Trichosanthes tricuspidata.
I will be posting its fruit section shortly
