It looks to me like G. resinifera which is fruiting now. G. gummmifera is supposed to be flowering from Jan to April. It is a smaller plant, leaves have 12-18 pairs of nerves. G. resinifera has 20 - 25 pairs. Also the fruit of G. gummifera is said to have longitudinal lines and a stout beak. (Fl of Maharashtra, Almeida) The local name is same for both the species.
