I think these images are of Nothopegia travancorica as per keys in BSI Flora of india (leaf nerves 25-30 pairs and leaves alternate).

Leave nerves are 12-13 pairs in Nothopegia beddomei as per keys.

Thanks, Navendu ji.

It appears keys in BSI Flora of india are not correct as being contradictory w.r.t. no. of secondary nerves as per book link in Flora of Peninsular India (about 20 for Nothopegia beddomei).

As branches and petals appear to be glabrous here.

Yes, this genus is taxonomically very messy and we dont have a good key to the species of this genus. Number of secondary nerves is variable even within a species and not reliable by itself for distinguishing between species.
