Dear All,
This looks to be a Myrtacean. Can be a species of Syzygium and a guess
is Syzygium jambos.

Dear Gurcharan Singh ji,
Dr. K. Karthigeyan has identified this as Syzygium samarangense (Blume) Merr. & L.M.Perry.

regards
Prashant

Dear All,

I think it is Syzygium praecox (Roxb.) Rathakr. & N.C.Nair
Almost like S. samarangense but it is much taller and the bark is whitish grey.

Dear All,

Not Syzygium jambos, because S jambos is a small tree no more than 5 m
tall, no more than 15 cm diameter. The bark is not whitish.

Dr. Kaliamoothy Karthigeyan has rightly idenitified this tree as Syzygium samarangense which is a very common tree in the coastal forests of the Andaman Islands.

To me looks different from images at Syzygium samarangense (Blume) Merr. & L.M.Perry
I find these closer to Pudji ji's images at Syzygium polyanthum (Wight) Walp., which also have distribution in Andamans.

Of course the flowers of Syzygium samarangense will be white. Thank you Garg ji for pointing out.
