Hi all, To me also it looks like *Artocarpus hirsutus* only. The fruits are echinate and not smooth. (About 10-15 cm across in size?) As Vijayadas ji said, the inner pulp (perianth) is very sweet and edible. Its generally reserved by monkeys in the forest. It is a Red Listed medicinal plant by the way.
