Thomisus pugilis
Crab spider is a common name applied loosely to many species of spiders, but most nearly consistently to members of the family Thomisidae. Among the Thomisidae it refers most often to the familiar species of "flower crab spiders", though not all members of the family are limited to ambush hunting in flowers.

Hi Nuwan I found one image that is pretty close to your spider on---crabspidersofindia.blogspot.com.I don't know how reliable this ID is ,but worth a look.
Fine shot of a probably vicious insect predator.
Thanks for the ID (Common Joker)! Much appreciated.
Thanks everyone !!
Thanks for the ID Paul ! it looks like pugilis, but i couldn't find any reasonable match on internet so i just put Thomisus sp.
