Dear Surajit ji and friends, I think this are the the fruits of Trewia nudiflora. I had seen similar fruits last year in Palakkad, Kerala. The id of the tree was confirmed by a botanist friend of mine. Unfortunately I couldn't photograph the fruits then. As you said the fruits in the earlier posts by Pravin ji and Dinesh ji does look different and it confuses me too. Hopefully our experts will help to solve this confusion.
