This shot was taken in Mayabti, Uttaranchal. Local people told me that it is a peach tree. I request for the exact id of this tree. Unfortunatlely, I do not have other pics.
This is a long shot hence very hard to say. but keep one thing for sure if the fruits have a glossy skin it can never be peach, peach always have a tomentose (hairy) skin. From such a distance, it looks like Diospyros kaki. just a funny and yummy thought. Can this be Artocarpus lakoocha :P!! when was the photo taken? It is definitely not peach but if taken in september it could be persimmon . FA I think it is Diospyros kaki Thunb. (Ebenaceae), we call it kesemek, or Japanese persimmon. Yes, looks like Diospyros kaki to me also. Nowadays, Korean market is full of this fruit. People call it 'Gam' here. We had few trees in Kashmir, known locally as Amlok Tree for Id from Kullu- NS 2012 : 9 images. 4 posts by 2 authors.

Looks like Diospyros ebenum of Ebenaceae family. Thanks a lot, ..., I find the leaves a bit different at Diospyros ebenum Can it be Diospyros kaki Thunb. ? 425 × 358 ??
