Dear Garg ji, 
Appears to be Garcinia morella only. 
But need to be confirmed as similar species are occurring in Manipur, Nagaland. 
Blaze exuding latex, bark of the tree is important for id.

This is surely not G. cambogioides syn. (G. morella).

But I don't think it is G. assmica also since the fruiting inflorescence is different from G. assamica.

By first look at leaves and fruits, it looks like G. indica (kokkum).

I checked but it does not seem to match with any. 
A similar plant was identified by National Herbarium, Howrah, as Garcinia succifolia Kurz. (=G. loniceroides, Ţ.Anders.). as per details at Garcinia species in Mizoram
Kindly see and confirm or otherwise.

From my experience, it could be even something new. 

During our study we found four new species for India, two from Western Ghats and two from Assam. Thorough study is needed with flowers both male and female, the nature of staminodes etc. Pl followup.

Dear Garg ji
Follow up study is required. Fruits and leaves similar with G.morella. There are few varities under G. morella. Both male & female flower including bark, latex may give additional clue. Take care of Jatindra ji & Mohan ji note.
With respectful regards,
Sanjib
