found this plant growing in a very rocky place…just wherever theres a little gravel and leaves lodged inbetween boulders…

leaves were very velvety and that makes it appear a very light blue-green.
leaves were aromatic

Could it be an Anisochilus species?

Anisochilus species in eFloraofindia (with details/ keys from published papers/ regional floras/ FRLHT/ FOI/ Biotik/ efloras/ books etc., where ever available on net) 

Can it be Anisochilus dysophylloides Benth. as per the following ?:

Just a suggestion- how about Anisochilus harmandii: http://chm-thai.onep.go.th/RedData/plants/detail.aspx?plants_CurrentPage=18

Where was it clicked ?
I doubt if Anisochilus harmandii is found in India on searching on net though a few specimen are given below as per which it appears a possibility:

It was a nice trail of discussion. It is beyond doubt that the plant in  question belongs to genus Anisochilus but we need to sure of the species.
Can we have the specimen physically if possible? We have a well developed herbarium and we can make use of it.

..or A carnosus ?

No, it is not A carnosus

This is Anisochilus dysophylloides Benth. = Coleus dysophylloides (Benth.) A.J.Paton as per reply in another thread: ID Request- 04022014-PKA5 and as per references at Anisochilus dysophylloides
