  1. Hi Shubham,
    It is an Oriental Chocolate Pansy ( Junonia iphita iphita)
    Here's a good site you can use to identify Indian butterflies.

"Junonia iphita" is a butterfly found in Asia. The wingspan is about 5–6 cm and the female can be told apart from the male by white markings on the oblique line on the underside of the hindwing. The wavy lines on the underside of the wings vary from wet- to dry-season forms.
