Yes, many thanks Garg ji.
It looks close to L. oleoides; and is clearly different from L. wightiana illustrated in the article: Arigela, Ravi & Ahamed Kabeer, Althaf & Murthy, Gvs. (2021). Endemic flowering plants in Kodaikanal Wildlife Sanctuary, Tamil Nadu, India. NeBIO. 12. 1-20.

Many thanks, Rajeev ji, Tapas ji and Garg ji.
Hopefully the ID will be resolved between Litsea oleoides (Meisn.) Hook.f. AND Litsea coriacea (B.Heyne ex Nees) Hook.f.
Regards.
