Dear Garg ji, All Members,

Thank you very much for forwarding my request for ID, with kind regards, Sam.

[J.M. Garg]

I tried with listed species in Flora of Peninsular India, with distribution in the area.

But could not find any match.

It comes somewhat close to Sonerila grandiflora, but not convinced.

Dear Dr Garg, The photograph closely resembles Sonerila nayarii. It is closely related to S. grandiflora but distinguished by the absence of a distinct peduncle. I hope the material might have been collected from high ranges of Idukki district of Kerala or from adjacent districts.
