Hi, I checked BSI's Flora of India (Vol. 3, 1993) and the keys lead me to identify this as *Melhania magnifolia*. But i am not sure of the id. Flowering season is said to be December. It is distributed in PJ, RJ, GJ & MH only.
Pl check it once again and tell us the confirmed id. It was originally published in JBNHS 26: 228. 1918. On Wed, Feb 3, 2010 at 3:17 PM, J.M.
