For me it looks like Millettia pinnata ( syn.Pongamia pinnata) only. I verified the leaves and fruits of the tree in front of my house. They match . On this tree the galls are usually formed especially on leaves. Most of the time one can see deformed leaves with galls. Perhaps the spherical formations in the photograph may be initiation of such galls at the end of the fallen fruits base. But, I am not sure.
