I have added one more image. Kindly check if it helps to ID this species.

I change it to arthropods category for you :-)

Those are very cool colors on the spider.

Do you have any other picture of it?
Might be a Chrysilla sp., similar to Chrysilla lauta. But these spiders are sometimes quite tricky to ID.

Welcome Viraj. That's a beautiful little jumping spider. I dont know the exact species sorry, but you have caught it very nicely in your image.

Hello Viraj and Welcome to the Project Noah community!
We hope you like the website as much as we do. There are many aspects to the site and community. The best way to get started is to read the FAQs at http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you can find all the tips, advice and "rules" of Project Noah. You, like the rest of the community, will be able to suggest IDs for species that you know (but that have not been identified), and make useful or encouraging comments on other users' spottings (and they on yours).
There are also "missions" you can join and add spottings to. See http://www.projectnoah.org/missions . A mission you should join is the https://10-dot-proj-noah.appspot.com/mis... to chose the "best wildlife photo of 2019",only the spottings added to that mission are eligible.Note that most missions are "local". Be sure not to add a spotting to a mission that was outside of mission boundaries or theme :) Each mission has a map you may consult showing its range. We also maintain a blog archive http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we have posted previous articles from specialists from different geographical areas and categories of spottings, as well as wildlife "adventures".
So enjoy yourself, share, communicate, learn. See you around :)
