Pavetta - Flowers 4-merous, style glabrous, exerted and unbranched
Tarenna - Flowers 5-merous, style hairy

Your photos are well matched with Pavetta.

In flora Flora of Ceylon the description provided does not match with the plant the main point of controversy of this plant being Tarenna sp is the stigma exerted over a long style. thence this is Pavetta zeylanica as said by Rasingam ji.

Dear all,
This is Dr Badri from Madurai,eye specialist and bird watcher. I am posting picture of what is called Therannai at Alagarkoil forest, Madurai, Tamil Nadu. The picture is that of a shrub raised from seeds collected at Alagarkoil growing in my garden at Madurai . Please confirm whether this is Tarenna asiatica.
Regards,Badri.

Dear Badri Ji,
I am quite sure that the plant you have posted is not that of Tarenna asiatica but again some Pavetta species.
I am attaching a photo slide which clearly shows the difference between the two genus,hope it will help to remove the confusion. Kindly see the attachement.

Regards
Tanay

I  agree with Prof. Ahluwalia. It seems to be Ixora parviflora.
