Clubbed antennae and pronotum broader toward the front are unusual in leaf beetles but typical of Calomela
I am not sure if that genus of Chrysomelinae leaf beetles occur in India but if it was in Australia, it would be very close.

    Yes, it looks very close visually.
    I do not know this genus and it does not occur in Australia so I cannot say if this is correct. It seems likely.
