I too think that this could be Decaschistia crotonifolia, as .. suggested. If possible please upload a picture of leaf and leafy branch.

On 16/8/08 in Talakona forest, AP. I hope the Id is correct. There were lot of young trees in the forest, possibly being planted.
The young trees could be tall herbs of Abelmoschus moschatus. Hibiscus tiliaceous is a coastal tree with dense foliage of deeply cordate leaves, a young tree would not flower.

This is Decaschistia crotonifolia of Malvaceae. This is an erect undershrub (not a tree) naturally growing in the forests of southern Andhra Pradesh (not planted).
