I found this tree growing quite commonly in Hulikal, Karnataka, there were plenty of these trees in the forest and all of them had new leaves growing.
id help appreciated.

Sir the tree was not fruiting at the time..and could not get leaf closeups as the tree had its branches very high..it is easily one of the giants of the forest with large buttressed trunks.

Thanks Arun ji. By the by where is Hulikal. Since I am in Mysore,
Karnataka now, I want to know so that if / when I visit that place I
can look out for the tree.

There is a chance for Elaeocarpus sp?

I too have a feeling that it is an Elaeocarpus species.Family
Elaeocarpaceae.

The tree looks like Elaeocarpus tuberculatus, found in marshy places
