Dear Rashida ji and Dinesh ji *Khaya senegalensis* is probably one of the most favourite trees for plantation by the roadside in Pune city from the garden Dept. next to *Cassia siamea* and *Peltophorum ferruginea* in that order. I have seen it flowering in spring and fruiting too.I think I have posted its pictures earlier and can be searched. Its foliage looks wonderful green and though the stem and trunk of the fully grown tree looks smooth grey and robust it is weak and the big size branches fall easily in hurricane since the tree is not native.
