What ipc sections applies for illegal cutting of trees ?

You can take the culprit to the NGT and register a FIR too stating brief facts without mentioning the sections!

Section 425 defines Mischief as wrongful damage or loss to the public or to any person. Cutting trees unauthorisedly without permission of the tree authority can be treated as a crime under Section 425 of IPC. Section 427 presccribes two years imprisonment and or fine. You can therefore fie FIR under section 425 as also under the NGT Act.

State laws apply to the query 

According to the Indian Forest Act, each state has laid down its own rules and regulations against felling of trees.

Refer section 21 of the Maharashtra Preservation of Trees Act, 1971,
