Good evening Mahadeswara Ji and thank you for the ID. Usha DI also suggested it as Ixora hybrid.

Thank you Garg Sir for taking care of this one. It is a hybrid of Ixora as have been suggested by Mahadeswara Ji and Usha Di -  http://greenmall.in/dwarf-red-rangan-double-or-ixora-chinensisnana-red-double/
