OK, thanks Saroj ji. May be it is found distributed in small scale OR its timber imported for commercial purpose. I had found this page in Forests and Forestry in Nepal <https://books.google.co.in/books?id=LrtcpVzm1K4C&pg=PA103&lpg=PA103&dq=Xylia+xylocarpa+Nepal&source=bl&ots=yaELMobjZ6&sig=ACfU3U2U1kI2ELMxhj22yNsyJrjs7yp3XA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjs__3Q8fjjAhWHfisKHQxlDbYQ6AEwDHoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=Xylia%20xylocarpa%20Nepal&f=false> by S. S. Negi, Sharad Singh Negi.
And searching for its synonym - *Xylia dolabriformis, *I found its entry in Ancient Nepal - Journal of the Department of Archaeology <http://himalaya.socanth.cam.ac.uk/collections/journals/ancientnepal/pdf/ancient_nepal_147_full.pdf> . I find the popular name *jambu* given to the plant ... found on page 12 (as printed on page) or page 17 of the PDF. Jambu is found as a name given to this plant in many languages - for, the colour of heartwood is the rose-pink colour of jambu fruit. The ascent and pronunciation varies regionally. In the western coast, the local laterite stone also gets the same name jambu, because of the jambu colour. I think I will go with *जांबु* ... your thoughts, please. Regards.
