The Spiny Oak Slug Caterpillar is an US species and not found in India. But they are from the same family. Most of the Limacodidae caterpillars from India and Asia are still not IDed. http://bugguide.net/node/view/424/bgimage Same one, but without an ID: http://radha-rangarajan.blogspot.ch/2011_05_01_archive.html
Closer to the Spinny Oak Slug Caterpillar but it is still missing the orange band
Limacodidae, Slug Moth Caterpillar.
Stunning caterpillar. I hope an ID is found for this beauty!
Really close to the Automeris io but I don't see one with the orange band
