It is a *Croton* sp. [Euphorbiaceae]. This particular specimen, possibly the only one in Mumbai, was identified as *Croton oblongifolius *Roxb. by RR Fernandez, and it has been documented as such in his PhD thesis on the Flora of Bombay (1959).
Recently, it was identified as *Croton tiglium* L. during the survey conducted in October 2010 by Dr Marselin Almeida & his students. The leaves are akin to *C. oblongifolius*, now known as *C. persimilis * Müll.Arg. Best wishes, Viplav El 12 de julio de 2014, 16:43, Aarti S.
