Usha di, This is Antidesma ghaesembilla <http://www.phytoimages.siu.edu/imgs/benctan/r/Phyllanthaceae_Antidesma_ghaesembilla_33719.html> (Phyllanthaceae/ Euphorbiaceae; ovary superior). Vaccinium <http://www.biotik.org/india/species/v/vaccneil/vaccneil_en.html>(Ericaceae; ovary inferior) in Tamil Nadu generally occurs in high altitudes of W. & E. Ghats and not recorded from the present locality. The features of fruits and leaves are completely different in these two. I am familiar with this species; and incidentally this is from my study area :) Several experts have already confirmed the ID here, so I won't doubt or get confused.
