Prashanth ji, Could this be a species of *Caesalpinia* possibly* Caesalpinia ferrea*. I am unable to confirm as the flower structure need to be checked as the individual flowers are not seen very clearly. Furthermore, if it is C.f. the bark is very very unique. In which park in T Nagar did you photograph. On Mon, Apr 9, 2012 at 6:41 PM, jmgarg1 <[email protected]> wrote:
