I strongly believe that the uploaded images are that of a specimen belonging to the genus *Holigarna. *The Digita Flora of Karnataka describes five species that are known to occur in Karnataka..*.H.arnottiana,H.ferruginea,H.grahamii,H.nigra and H.beddomei....*.If *H.arnottiana *and* H.arnottiana *are ruled out the options narrow down to the remaining three* H.grahamii,H. nigra *and* H.beddomei....! *No images of are avaliable in that site for* H.beddomei . *A detailed floral desciption is provided for* H.grahamii .*But I am not able to decipher this....! Moreover, H.grahamii is known to occur in the region where the instant specimen was found...! Would the experts kindly examine...? I understand that it is difficult to identify a specimen by images alone,but I am left with no options except the images that I have uploaded...!
Ref: Description for H.grahamii for ready reference. http://florakarnataka.ces.iisc.ernet.in/hjcb2/herbsheet.php?id=280&cat=1 Keeping my fingers crossed...!!!
