A reply from another thread: "I think it is Ehretia laevis. Would expect to see more obvious pubescence otherwise. Talbot says that E laevis is found in the moister forests whereas E aspera is invariably confined to desert and barren stony regions. I have never come across E aspera in Thane area. Would be interested to hear if anyone has. Regards Radha"
