Scroll down about half way...it's some sort of Blue...but they don't seem to know either.

I located it here: http://www.treknature.com/gallery/Asia/India/photo42392.htm

It should be the Common Cerulean. Kindly verify and create an entry, please.

I'm going for Lepotes plinius. Long-tailed blue I'm afraid is not the one, though it is closer. In flight, I see the blue colour. But when it sits and folds the wings [as in this shot], it is a different pattern that matches that of L.p.
