Tetragnathidae, Opadometa fastigata, very similar to Opadometa tessellata, but I think the to closer black spots behind the head are only seen in Fastigata. http://www.southindianspiders.org/south-indian-spiders3.htm http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/14238023 http://indiantetragnathidae.blogspot.in/ http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/12419611 Please, verify!! And check for Opadometa tessellata to exclude! Maybe someone from India might help to confirm!
