I think these images may be of Grewia asiatica L. as Peduncles much longer than petioles as per keys in BSI Flora of India ?

Hi,  Mayur ji. 

Pl. have a re look as peduncle appears larger than pedicle, which appears very small. 

[J.M. Garg]

As there are images from three places, I feel 1st image is certainly of Grewia asiatica

[Saroj Kumar Kasaju]

ID not solved ?

Thank you

Saroj Kasaju

[Dinesh Valke]

Many thanks Saroj ji for resurfacing the post. 

ID of Jan 6, 2008 at Vaghbil, Thane is validated as Grewia tiliifolia Vahl.

Regards.

Dinesh

[Saroj Kasaju]

I think it is still in the UNID list in the efi.

Thank you.

Saroj Kasaju

[Dinesh Valke]

OK, thanks Saroj ji.

I too had similar thoughts just as Garg ji about the lengths of peduncle - pedicil leading to G. asiatica, but I think there must be some other characteristic that rules out the possibility of G. asiatica.

I hope the ID gets resolved soon.

Regards.
