Hi Nagesh its Green Jwel Bug what Indian ID is. Its East Asian ID is Tropical Shield bug. It is already featured in many spottings on Project Noah.
This is nice spotting but habitat is to be type of environment like spotted in wild or urban area or rural area with little bit description and tell if you identify the plant name.

Beautiful capture of your beetle. I like Yasser and certain this is not a fire fly. I am sure you will get someone to give you the correct id of this beauty. Welcome to Project Noah Nagesh. I look forward to learning what your part of the world looks like through your spottings.

Hi Nagesh, great spotting! I'm confident that this is not Lampyridae. It might be a jewel bug (Scutelleridae), but I'm not positive. Hope this helps. Welcome!
