Stinging Nettle Slug Caterpillar

It was quite an amazing sight to see this 4 Stinging Nettle Slug Caterpillar on one leaf.
Looking closely, it is yellow in colour, with three black bands (on the sides and on top) and on all the black bands are circles of blue. It also has a pink band on its body.
They are from the family of Limacodidae.
