Dear Gargji, Am very familiar with this tree, so I could say this is precisely *Diospyros malabarica* (Desr.) Kostel. This is our native tree found from coastal to mid-altitude; often cultivated.
The tree is abundant along river Moyar of satyamangalam and Nilgiri north forest divisions of TN. On Sat, Mar 27, 2010 at 11:24 AM, J.M.
