Dear Shubhada, I believe this to be *Haplanthodes neilgherryensis* ... however, this may not be the accepted name ... not much data found on internet except in one of the FOS books of Ingalhalikar ji. Much better would be *Haplanthodes tentaculatus *... FOI has doubts about the name ... doubt not yet resolved. Check at FOI: http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Tentacled%20Haplanthodes.html
