I think it may be Lonicera webbiana Wall. ex DC., as per images and details herein and as per keys in Flora of Pakistan.

Hi, Sunit ji,

Where is the doubt ? In fruit shape?

Flora of Pakistan says " Berries c. 7 mm long, ovoid, red, free" 

India Biodiversity Portal says "Fruit berry bright red, purplish black when ripe, free, about 1 cm in diameter, globose, seeds ellipsoid"

Hi, Sunit ji,

Any keys?

Flora of Pakistan gives the following keys:

17 (16)	Berries connate, bracteoles minute or absent		(18)
+	Berries free, bracteoles small, glandular hairy		(19)
18 (17)	Calyx lobes obsolete, margin undulate. Berries red		15 Lonicera microphylla
+	Calyx teeth linear-lanceolate. Berries black		13 Lonicera caucasica subsp. govaniana
19 (17)	Leaves more than 8 cm long. Corolla ± 12 mm long, densely hairy		14 Lonicera webbiana
+	Leaves less than 4 cm long. Corolla ± 7 mm long, sparsely pubescent		16 Lonicera heterophylla

As per POWO, only Lonicera caucasica subsp. govaniana (Wall. ex DC.) H.Hara is reported in our area.

But the Flora of Pakistan above says the berries black.
