According to Kew, they are not synonyms. Cooke's; Smith's and Dalzel & Gibson are too old to follow for synonymy I think. Smith and Dalzel & Gibson were published much before the publication of crassicaulis. But Cooke's flora is too good to help in identification.
Pavetta indica is distributed from Indian Subcontinent to S. China and Pen. Malaysia whereas Pavetta crasscaulis is distributed in West and South India. This is according to Kew. By anychance anyone has the following reference (:P hehehe) this could be of great help: Pavetta crassicaulis Bremekamp, Repertorium Specierum Novarum Regni Vegetabilis 37: 112 (1934).
