It is sad when the original poster vanishes after posting a question. We simply requested a clearer picture which would have solved the problem in minutes...but there is no response!
Anyway, Munir sb, I guess Loquat has longer hairy leaves somewhat similar to a mango tree but it may be difficult to rule out based on those microscopic images.

You are right,the leaves look different-I have a Lokath/loquat & also a mango tree in my garden.In the question picture,I was looking at the fruit only & didn't notice the leaves minutely. Let us wait for the close up of the fruit for confirmation.

I agree with you, it is obligatory to response immediately.

Salaam

Thank you all who replied and tried to identify the plant, but the pictures were not good.
I am sorry that I couldn't reply for last few days and also couldn't post better pictures.
I think it is not lokat/lokath/loquat, anyway...
It may be some varient of lasura/lasuri, but even that is also doubtful.... because lasura has a one-big-seed inside, but this fruit has small multiple seeds.
The fruit is initially yellow, but red ones are relatively ripened.

A simple clear picture of the fruits is all what is needed here. Until and unless this tree is growing in someone else's house, it is not a rocket science project to take a clear picture of the fruits.

I agree with you that taking picture is not big project, but unfortunately I couldn't manage it. In previous days, I was in Islamabad or Mianwali and the tree is in Lahore.
