I think this is *Exacum wightianum.* As per notes under *Exacum wightianum* (at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326462348_A_TAXONOMIC_REVISION_OF_EXACUM_L_GENTIANACEAE_-_EXACEAE_IN_SOUTH_INDIA ) "*Exacum wightianum* is a showy plant with bright violet flowers. *It is easily distinguished by its broadly winged stem, sessile, leathery leaves, drooping fruits and anthers with a prominent papilla near the apex*."
