The fruit capsule , the red arils with black seeds inside peeking out is characteristic of fruits of some of the Magnolia family trees

This is  Michelia  champaca seeds.

the red aril is letting the black or dark brown seed itself peep thru in some

the sweet aril is slightly fleshy and loved by humans, bats, other seed eating birds

and even ants on the forest floors.  

the  capsules of these fruits are very characterisctic

see it once and you never forget them

Thanks for showing

Regards

Rakesh

Tejphal is a good idea (Xanthoxylum group)

in western herbalist's list that would be prickly ash

it must be included in the differential diagnosis to start with

but they Xnathoxylum fruits outer capsules are different,

and their seeds  dont  have the sweet red aril like this one does.
