Cinnyris asiaticus (Eclipse pumage)
I will definitely try to add the description habitat and notes to my spottings, thanks for the advice Ashish :)
Aditi request you to take time to decorate your every spotting like what Daniele Pralong, Eulalia Rubio are doing... Hope you learn and follow their style in spotting...

The plumage is similar but the beaks are very different.I think this one resembled the Loten's sunbird female the most, except for the markings on the breast which i couldnt identify.
Or Nectarinia lotenia hindustania
