Yes saroj ji. Nevertheless, it is always difficult to differentiate between C.procera & C.gigantea ; between white flowered one and white coloured ones!

Yes it is C. gigantea
The two can be easily differentiated C. gigantea: Leaves mostly oblong, obtuse at apex; flower buds oblong, corolla lobes more than thrice as long as broad, Gynostegium raised above corolla; corona shorter than gynostegium
C. procera: Leaves broadly ovate, apex abruptly pointed; flower buds globose, corolla lobes barely twice as long as broad, Gynostegium not raised above corolla; corona and gynostegium of same length
