According to Kurz neem is not infrequent in the drier parts of Prome, especially in the higher ridges of
Yomah and Ava. Gamble stated that if neem was found wild anywhere in India. It was probably in the
forests of Carnatic, in parts of Deccan and in drier inland forests of Burma. Gamble quotes J.W. Oliver
that neem is found wild and cultivated in upper Burma. Brandis is however, the only one to state
categorically that it is wild in the dry region of Irrawady valley in Burma and is found in upper regions
from Prome. In India it is naturalized and grows widely throughout the country. Jacobs following
Brandis believes it to be native in upper Burma but cultivated throughout India, Ceylon,
Indo-Chinese-Peninsula (not Malay) and Eastern Java (Inclusive Madura I) to Sumbawa.

Troup describes it to grow in the drier parts of India where it is cultivated and as an escape from a
cultivated condition, it is found growing wild in many localities. However, in Saharanpur Siwalik it
grows in some quantity on the inner ridges at places where it is difficult to believe that it has spread
from cultivated trees. Neem is, therefore, apparently wild in the Siwalik hills. Kanjilal and Gupta found
neem to be common along the foothills of Siwaliks of Saharanpur especially from Kasumani to
Hardwar where it is unmistakably wild if not indigenous.
