I think this is the Gooyera repens that Balkar ji was refering to in another thread. Please validate. Photographed from Chakrata Budher caves Road in September.

This is Goodyera marginata.

G. marginata will have proper white band along the mid rib of leaves for an easy id. But there are other features too.

Follow this: Liu, Y.W., X.X. Zhou, A. Schuiteman, P. Kumar, J. Hermans, S.W. Chung & H.Z. Tian. 2019.
