It could be also due to sunburn (also called as sun scorch). Usually it happen due to prolonged hot, dry and windy weather or bright sunshine which causes plants to lose water in excess by transpiration faster than water uptake from roots. Also conditions like sandy or gravelly soil, near obstructions or pavement that restrict root growth, or exposed windy slopes promote scorching.
Water the tree regularly and provide shade during high temperature hours.
