Thanks Prashant ji and Arun ji The plant looks close to *Dyschoriste dalzelli* Few points not matching are : Flora of BSI and FOS both mention the leaves to be crenate or subcrenate while I checked all of my photographs but the leaf margins are entire everywhere. Can it be *D.vagans*.....? Though the leaves are supposed to be much larger in it and I couldn't find the nature of its leaf margin. Its flower size is supposed to be less than 2.5cm as against more than 2.5cm in *D.dalzellii* My flower size is 2.5cm or 2.6cm
