Dear Dr Rawat, The place I have seen Lantana indica is just the outskirts of Hassan town in Karnataka. Just after Hassan town (4-6km) when you travel to Bangalore you can see L.indica it grows mixed with L camera on the road side. Fr. Saldanha had mentioned the same in his Flora of Hassan and the attachment I sent is from Flora of Coorg. So this plant is well distributed in Karnataka.
