On detailed checking, I will go for *Staurogyne spathulata* (BI.) Koord.
<https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a---l/a/acanthaceae/staurogyne/staurogyne-glauca>
(syn.
Staurogyne glauca), as per Keys in Flora of Karnataka
<http://florakarnataka.ces.iisc.ernet.in/hjcb2/img/pdf/Staurogyne%20glauca/page_348.pdf.jpg>
due
to viscous-pubescent nature of the stem and non- trailing nature.

Dear friends,

Not sure of this plant's distribution status in our country - perhaps
southern peninsula.
Please help with any name(s) in southern states of India.
