Perhaps Premna L. Verbenaceae

Do try confirming description with Premna tomentosa Willd.

Yes, This plant is Premna tomentosa Willd. (Verbenaceae)

Premna tomentosa is a good choice but identifying from photographs always is confusing

Premna tomentosa Willd. is an accepted name . This name is the accepted name of a species in the genus Premna (family Lamiaceae).. 

Looks like Premna tomentosa Willd., but please check if it is Premna thwaitesii C.B.Clarke. P. thwaitseii is endemic to Sri Lanka and it is a small tree.

I agree with Krishnamani Ramanathan , this plant is Premna thwaitesii C.B.Clarke.
