Going by keys from Flora of Nepal Online account (as below), it should be Eriobotrya elliptica:
1a Twigs glabrous, 2–4 mm thick E. dubia

b Twigs tomentose, 5–9 mm thick ... 2
2a Leaves densely tomentose below. Stipules persistent, subulate. Cultivated E. japonica
b Leaves glabrous or glabrescent below. Stipules caducous. Wild .... 3
3a Petioles 16–50 mm. Leaves usually only slightly toothed towards apex E. elliptica
b Petioles 5–9 mm or leaves subsessile. Leaves serrate with hooked teeth in at least apical three quarters of margin E. hookeriana

In view of the above keys, I have to recheck our our earlier observations at
https://efloraofindia.com/2016/09/18/eriobotrya-elliptica/
