Forwarding again for Id confirmation or otherwise please.

Some earlier relevant feedback:

Seems close to images of Siddarth Jude Machado at http://indiabiodiversity.org/observation/show/1740641          
But I am finding validation from anywhere else.
Pl. also check the description here (flower colour etc. looks different)             

Plant illustration confuses the matter further: 

How is it different from Lepidagathis cuspidata Nees ?

This should be Lepidagathis bandraensis Blatt. (Though this name is unresolved, interestingly there are no specimens in Botanical Survey of India even not in BSI Western Circle Pune too.

Kind regards,

I believe the plantillustrations link is actually of Lepidagathis scariosa Nees. 
I used Gamble's key to ID the observation here http://indiabiodiversity.org/observation/show/1740641
According to Gamble's Key, the attached images from Chandoli seem to be L. spinosa
