Bimbi in sanskrit/ ayurvedic botany books
tindora in gujarati, and in madhya pradesh hindi

nice depiction and cross section, Surajit


 my understaniding was that tela kucho that helps liver disorder is a bit
different (that's why cant go by the colloquial names..).... fruit is
pointed at the distal end i think sort of like a triangular end ....
(????)    vs   bimbi is rounded at shoulders and one end is narrowed but
still cylindrical...

real tela kucho and this bilimbi /tindora : botanically more differences
exist .. Gurcharnji had made a key way back when
