There are several species of Impatiens native to India....so a botanist could definitely help.

I will try to check with local botanists, if there are any. :)

Yes, this one is the closest best. But this one is a little more stripy. Stripes on the side petals too.

Ok thanks anyway. MM and NP, as Dan suggested even noli-tangere doesn't seen to have the same red stripes. No?

I wish I could, but I'm not sure. Perhaps AshishNimkar can help you.

Could you suggest another species??

I agree that it is probably Impatiens but I don't think it's pallida. Your spotting has much more red and yellow color on the petals,

You are right. But wiki says it's native to US.

This appears to be a species of Impatiens...perhaps you can find the species in a local flora
