I think Flueggea virosa only as earlier suggested by Tapas ji, as leaves are quite variable as per images herein.
"leaf blade elliptic, oblong, obovate, or rotund, 2-5 × 1-3 cm, papery, base obtuse to cuneate, margin entire, slightly revolute when dry, apex rounded to acute, mucronulate, white-green abaxially; lateral veins 5-8 pairs. "
