While checking my old photographs I came upon this picture.
Will appreciate the ID
Seems a medium sized tree with green fruits

a member of Euphorbiaceae or Phyllanthaceae

Lets see if any other information comes out.

Somehow the fruit reminded me of the ones I photographed in Lalbagh, Bangalore of Vernicia fordii, Syn Aleurites fordii of Euphorbiaceae. But the leaves are different. 
I can post them if required.

Looks different from species of Blachia so far in efi site as per comparative images herein and also from Vernicia fordii 

Also could not find a match as per comparative images at Euphorbiaceae‎

Cleistanthus sp ?

This does not look native. I think this may be Excocaria bussei. Was it by any chance photographed in Pune University?

Appears close to Excoecaria bussei (Pax) Pax as per

It was identified as Excocaria bussei (an exotic) by …
