The stem is so long. Cant confirm without flowers even for the genus but could be Gastrochilus.
Thanks and regards

I think D. benthamii only, the spherical head and characteristic basal auricles of D. chrysanthemoides are missing. See this cropped image

Thanks, Singh ji.
I think it is Dichrocephala chrysanthemifolia (Blume) Candolle only as per GBIF specimen
Basal auricles may not be that prominent in smaller plants and upper leaves.
Flower heads are different from Dichrocephala benthamii
