The fruit had one seed inside, I have checked in Mumbai.

 brown seed was much larger than its current size when it was green =

 so speaks of greater disparity in size of the two = obvious.

 second the smaller seed could be from the same tree ... fruits of same

 storm rain storm or birds or animals dropped it, so it remains small...

 i  can only suggest  cut/saw it neatly in half and see if the inside
 structure is the same

 *if only one seeds inside, *only Clusiaceae with one seeded fruit is
 calophyllum

 i wish you had picked a leaf and photographed that... strong primary vein
 and *almost parallel secondary veins with inconspicuous tertiary veins* =
 calophyllum

 or let it dry and see if it begins to look the same as the brown on...

 Secondly what other trees were there that could produce roundish green
 fruits?
 ==

 if you are back in kolkata,

 salt lake central park has many calophyllum inophyllum trees to the left
 of the main walkway  keeping the lake to the right

 you could check out resemblance to your tree there  and the fallen seeds
 early in the morning will be still there before the sweepers  haul them
 away..

 seeds are  good source of oil (very dense) for oil lamps
 that's the ethnobotanic use for the seeds, used to be very popular, but
 with ration shop kerosene available just by standing in line,  seems to be
 fallen off the radar for manufacture in the villages along the ganges
 delta..

I have a question on this flower (posting VOF Week 290812_DS_09). You
suggested it as Lonicera obovata- when I search flowersofindia database, it
shows white bell shaped flowers- synonym Blueberry Honeysuckle. Leaves are
also different. And it flowers in May-July.
Am I making any mistake? Please clarify.

 Good you pointed out. It is surely not Lonicera, rather Cotoneaster. I
 would have gone for Cotoneaster microphyllus, but the flower seems to me
 reddish suggesting C. adpressus:

 I think you are right. Dalia ji your using name Rudraprayag (3500 m)
 confused me. By the way what is the altitude of Kakragad, as this species
 rarely ascend higher than 1800 m. Yes the tree flowers in January-February
 when the tree is leafless, and the fruits are expected by April. This may
 not happen in Rudraprayag area where flowering season does not start before
 April-May.

 Requesting ID for few more trees - in Uttarakhand, Kakragad , 50 KM from
 Rudraprayag.
 During my visit in April 2011 for a bird watching trip, our guide told me
 that birds are very fond of these fruits. Incidentally there was no leaf on
 the tree at that time.

 Please help with ID.

 My first response is to say it looks like the underside of a water

 but then looking close... all leaves have the spicules/thorns all
 leaves could not be upside down, unless a nearby pond was just cleaned
 out and rubbish thrown, where the underside of all the leaves  is now
 on top...

 but then I may be missing something... and may be there is a
 frakensteinine aquatic plant that has such numerous thorns/ spicules
 on top surface  some more astute or experienced botanists would
 know...

 Secondly, the parakeet seems to be muddy head to toe... some sort of
 mishap, may be... intriguing

 may be your friend may yet tell us the story attached to this

I took the hint from Vijayasankar ji and searched the site flowersofIndia-
can it be *Jacquemontia pentanthos ?*
Flowers and leaves resemble to the plant I shot - only confusion is the size
of the flowers. As per the site, size is 2.5 cm dia, but to me it was
smaller.

Tanay ji, It is not Ipomoea indica- I think. The leaves are different ( not
3 lobed) and the flowers are not of funnel shaped. Also the size is smaller
and the colour do not change at different time of the day.
Please confirm the id.
