Charadrius mongolus
Charadrius leschenaultii (Greater Sand Plover) is very similar but has a slightly longer bill. It also retains a reddish tinge on the collar while the Lesser turns grey in winter.

I changed this from Greater to Lesser Sand Plover based on the reasons given in the description following discussion with Atul.
