A tree with yellow flowers seen in the Bhimtal area on a mountain slope on 23/3/13.
It was not possible to go nearer to take proper close ups.

It is not a tree, rather a scrambling shrub has reached over the branches of support tree. Looking from a distance it may appear as interpreted here.
It is Caesalpinia decapetala (Roth) Alston, (=Caesalpinia sapiaria Roxb.).
