Yes it is Pseudomussaenda flava of Rubiaceae family.
I wonder whether it is in the natural habitat/forest away from habitation. Is this species plenty there? http://gcrec.ifas.ufl.edu/pcc/Teaching_Garden/Mussaenda.pdf


Dwarf Yellow Mussaenda. Pseudomussaenda flava (syn. Mussaenda lutea, Mussaenda luteola, Mussaenda glabra, Mussaenda incan) of Rubiaceae
Origin: Tropical Africa, Asia, and Malaysia
( Refer www. toptropicals.com for more info.)
It was on the way to Rajmachi, near Tungarli dam, which is surrounded by bunglows having private gardens.. might have escaped.

what makes it pseudomussaenda? what's the feature that separates the real from pseudo----
The difference lies in the fruits. The depicted genus has a dry loculicidal capsule whereas Mussaenda has a indehiscent fleshy berry like fruits. Both are under the family Rubiaceae.
