Owlfly

Antlions eyes usually have larger gaps between them while Owlfly's eyes are closer to each other.

Seems more like an owlfly.

Same order (Neuroptera), different families. Antlions are Myrmeleontidae (http://bugguide.net/node/view/137/tree), Owlflies are Ascalaphidae (http://bugguide.net/node/view/4129). This page has photos of adult versions of each, as well as other Neuropterans (http://natureswow.com/antlions-lacewings-owlfly-neuroptera/) I'm certainly no entomologist, look at the descriptions and decide for yourself.

Cool photo, my first thought was 'antlion' as well but it looks to fit the 'owlfly' (http://www.treknature.com/gallery/Asia/India/photo140418.htm) description better.
