The Plant list gives three names as unresolved as per link: http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-2498906 (*Lindenbergia* *indica* Kuntze) http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-2498856 (*Lindenbergia* * urticifolia* Lehm.) http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-2498905 (*Lindenbergia* *indica* Vatke) Few books from India talks about *Lindenbergia* *indica* (L.)
