Thank you very much, Sir There is one more Lauraceae member in Solan area, which people call BAJHOL in local dilect. That is slightly different from this. I have seen only leaves and fruit of that plant. If I get time to visit that area again in March- April, I will try to click flowers, so that it can be identified.

While N. languinosa is a synonym of N. cuipala, I do not recognize N. chinensis or N. languinosa var. chinensis, a Chinese element in India. N. umbrosa does not occur in your area and the report must be based on misidentification.
