This could perhaps be Bishofia javanica, supossed to be growing along streams, sub-himalayan region.

Sorry for the typo. and thanks Tanay. Let me add some more info. now that Amit ji has confirmed the tree. Bischofia  javanica is in honour of G.W. Bischoff, a professor at Heidelberg in the early 19th century; javanica-Java, referring to its place of origin. Commonly called Bishop wood tree, Java Cedar ,Euphorbiaceae family.

 

Wood is red, used for dyeing bamboo baskets, fans and so on. Timber for building!    Ref: Aima, pg 58.

 

regards,

Rashida.

Great information Rashida ji. Thanks Tanay ji for pointing out the mistakes.

[Rashida Atthar]

Would like to inform the group that this  tree Bischofia javanica Blume is now in Phyllanthaceae family as per Kewplant list. Earlier it was in Euphorbiaceae as also informed in  my post.  Kindly note the update.
