Hi John, It's okay. It's very simple thing no need to apologize. :) I know that even my pics are not that much clear. Every one here usually verify the reference in comments so there is less chance for wrong ID. So, no worries! I'm happy that you have commented on my spotting. BTW, I have little knowledge and trying to learn from the spottings and even from the comments! :)
Hi m.prasad.369, I must apologise for the erroneous information I sent you on this one. I must be more careful going forward. I really don't want to point anyone in the wrong direction. Luckily you were knowledgeable enough to spot my mistake. Happy Spotting. John B.
John B, Thank you for the comment but it seems different. I added few more spottings in Notes for more clarity. It looks close to Brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys. Refer :

Mouth part is flat for Halyomorpha halys but in above spotting it's triangular in shape. So, I'm little puzzled.
