There are many Strychnos colubrine with different authorship; Scolubrina Bl is S.wallichi;
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Strychnos_colubrina the images have tendrils; presence of tendril is important character; when ii is a old mature tree tendrils grow woody; we had observed some with weak tendrils. It is identified with the help of BSI, B.Suryanaraayana Sir-author of Flora of Nellore district;

I am adding few more images. 
After your comments I have again referred other books available with me; Sorry for the incorrect identification; it indicates the plant as Strychnos minor Dennst.  Syn.  Strychnos lenticellata Hill,  
Tendrils bifid thickened; leaf apex acute; nerve reticulations raised beneath; berry crustaceous. Please make corrections.
Thanks, ..., for the final id as Strychnos minor Dennst.
