Garg ji, for sure, neither of the pods in Pravin ji's post are *C. pentandra*. *C. pentandra* pods are comparatively longer (and thus appear slender), about twice the length of *B. insigne*'s or *B. ceiba*'s. *C. pentandra* pods taper on both sides much more than the other two. This tree is not our native, it is found only planted along roads and avenues.
