Many many thanks Muthu for pointing to *Beilschmiedia* and allied species. I did a little bit of checking on the internet for *Beilschmiedia dalzellii* / *Beilschmiedia wightii* / *Phoebe paniculata*.
*Beilschmiedia wightii* seems the best candidate - because of the glossy upper surface of the leaves, the distinctly pale underside with the heavy, prominent midrib. Regards.
