Garg ji, I have posted the same plant in DVJAN04 <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/HfdK_Yejpco/3IwfKQ7405AJ> - that Anurag is sharing in this post.
Navendu has suggested *Justicia wynaadensis*; and Santhan ji - *Justicia andersonii* Wassh (= *Justicia santapaui* Bennet) but flowers of : *J. wynaadensis* are borne in pairs *on spike*s *5 - 10 cm long* *J. santapaui* are relatively large, about 2 - 3 cm in size. I am skeptical about the posted plant being *J. wynaadensis*; and am sure it is not *J. santapaui*. Perhaps Navendu can help us with his thoughts. Regards.
