Hi,
 
The flower and fruit looks like Pomelo (Citrus grandis) to me. However i cannot be sure as i have not seen the flower and fruit of grape fruit(Citrus x paradisi). The shape of the fruit is a dead giveaway. While Pomelo is kind of pear shaped, grapefruit is usually fully round.

Thanks Tapan ji,Rajendra ji and Ajit ji.
In Pomelo the petals look bit roundish while in grapefruit slightly elongated.Even the fruit doesn't seem to be pear-shaped.It is almost round.I feel it should be paradisi but i would still like to confirm.

It is not Citrus. The leaf-shape does not match. Uploading the few photos from my house.

Distributed as  Citrus paradisi ? 
Yes C. paradisi looks good, C. grandis (now C. maxima) would have much larger fruit
