Mam/Sir the seed in question is Shorea roxburgii I could confirm it only after going through the link that Usha Di sent. Something my gardener also mentioned about this seed belonging to a tree whose cutting is banned by the Indian government. Its wood is quite expensive and not a large number of these remaining . He mentioned some local name which i cannot recall. But of course i now know the botanical name and thanks for identifying the exact plant !
