Flowering observed in mid of October in Kanha Tiger Reserve (Part of
Satpuda range and Maikal Range - Madhya Pradesh). Is it Canscora
Pauciflora (Which is otherwise suppose to be endemic to Western Ghat
Complex).

Without additional information and pictures to see the habit leaves and calyx it would be difficult to reach id confirmation. 
My guess is C. diffusa but has to check the same with any reliable flora.

I Agree with Gibyji,
 
From the image it seems to be C. diffusa. The species shows colour variation from pink to white.

From winged calyx, it should be Canscora perfoliata Lam.
