This does look close to Luisia zeylanica which has leaves that start tapering almost 1-2 inches before the apex. In this plant at least I can't see that character. Luisia zeylanica also has much narrower petals than this. I can faintly see the there are 5 veins on the petals, which is also a character of L. zeylanica. I would be more than happy to see a fresh flower. Till then we can consider Saroj sir's id correct. Thanks and regards Pankaj
