Dear Saroj ji,
Yes, it is Macrosolen pseudopsilantha, thank you very much for ID my plant.  But one dissimilarity while googling shows multiple flower buds in one auxil.  Where as my plant have only one flower bud in auxil.  
With kind regards, Sam.

Forwarding again for Id assistance please.

Some earlier relevant feedback:

With kind regards, Sam. 

I check all species of Macrosolen and Elytranthe listed in Flora of Peninsular India.

Others are not matching.

But the single flower in axil is creating a doubt as per description in Flowers of India (which seems to have been taken from Flora of India volume 23, 2012).- from me
