Sorry I wouldn't know if this is genuine E. commutatum without studying the hairs and scales.  But are you sure it is E. commutatum and not E. stelligerum etc.?   Elaphoglossum species in south India are quite difficult.  P. Bhargavan who determined it was often very mistaken in his attempts at identifying Indian ferns so I would suggest you check and question that. 
There's no such word as "sores", you presumably meant sori or spores.  But as it's an acrostichoid coenosorus covering the whole surface of the fertile frond and without indusia, it is not sori - sporangia would be the correct term in this case.
