Thanks for the reply sir.
I am bit confused about the distinct square mark which is bordered with erected hairs (see 2nd image). Please highlight.

Thanks to jplami Sir, Xavier Sir and of course Francesco Sir.
I have checked the charecter from the translated version of Fabricius. Though the description is inadequate, Following characters are matching:
Prothorax with two tubercles, elytra with a compressed tubercle at base, antennae short, with a tooth at base.
Elytra punctured, with a compressed tubercle at base, which follows with a raised ridge. Abdomen black, last segment white.
One character, at the middle of the elytra there is two tubercle which is not mentioned in Fabricius description. So on the basis of other rest characters it is P. inaequalis
