Muthu ji, search by Siru-Vengai in Tamil dictionary led me to following:

சிறுவேங்கை ciru-venkai, n. < id. +. Thorny blue-druped featherfoil. See மலை வேங்கை.
மலைவேங்கை malai-venkai, n. < id. +. Spinous kino tree, l. tr., Bridelia retusa

... the leaves do look like that of Bridelia retusa.

 

Regards

Hello,

The leaves are too thick to be those of Bridelia retusa. The fruits of
Bridelia also are never of the colour as those seen in the picture. My
guess is that it is some Ficus. However its just a guess.

Hi, I thought it could be a species of Cordia, but not sure. However the local name suggests it is a species of Bridelia or its allied.
