Thanks, Saroj ji, for looking into difficult ids. 

Lonicera caucasica does not have any distribution in India. 

Instead, Lonicera caucasica subsp. govaniana (Wall. ex DC.) Hara in Hara & Williams is found in India but it has black fruits as per Flora of Pakistan. Also looks different as per GBIF specimens from India. 

This appears close to Lonicera webbiana Wall. ex DC. as per description in Flora of Pakistan and details at FoP illustration, FoC illustration, FoC illustration 2, FoC image, GBIF specimens from India- specimen 1, specimen 2, specimen 3.
