This sweetly scented Pecteilis sp was photographed near Ranikhet, Uttarakhand in Sept. 2019. To me it appear as P. gigantea (Sm.) Raf. (Prchidaceae). 
Correct ID is requested.

 Small correction Rawat Ji, you typed Prchidaceae instead Orchidaceae, when I see the first look, I thought it's a new family to me, then searched where is it in APG IV but there's no, and again came back and saw the Pankaj sir comments I fixed it's Orchidaceae only without search any literature.
That's correct, it's Orchidaceae only.
Thank you, 
with kind regards.
