Thank you Ornithoptera80 and Bayucca:)

Looks for me more like a Syrphidae than Tabaniae. I suggest Asarkina sp. (some are now Didaeopsis sp.?) and possibly Asarkina salvia, but I am not really familiar with Diptera, so, I cannot go down to species level on a safe base. https://indiabiodiversity.org/observation/show/330206
