Dear Vijaysankar, Thank you so much for giving a name to our trees. I have rechecked on the net and the flower pictures match completely so this definitely seems to be Gmelina arboria. The common name in marathi being Shevan.However my trees have a perfectly symmetrical cony /triangular growth and I have yet to see similar pictures on the net. Thanx again, Sunita
