If we do then shouldn't it has some significance in relation with its
indigenous counterparts?

Thanks Nidhan ji for keen observation and uploading this plant. I
had quietly filed it as C. carandas.
Perhaps after reading the key in eFlora of China, there is no need to upload
my photographs. First photograph of Nidhan ji and second of Balkar ji tell
the whole story to identify it as C.
And yes, this also helped me to identify my plant from Film city LA, USA,
which also I had quietly identified as C. carandas, but turned out to be C.
macrocarpa.
