JD : The FW ante-medial line is not evenly curved as in dentifascia. Further, there is only one subbasal short streak here, whereas all images of dentifascia that I could find have two. We should check this paper - Restoration of the genus Hampsonascia Volynkin with descriptions of five new species. Maybe this is one of the "Sesapa" spp. - https://zenodo.org/record/5656532
GI: I second the characteristics he points our as differences. Looked up the reference JD has suggested. From the paper this looks closer to what is given there as "Sesapa" honbaensis
SS: yes, this is "Sesapa" honbaensis, a new record for India. We are confirming by dissecting genitalia. Will park for now.
