Hello:

I'm totally not an expert, but I think it looks like a Gastrozona sp.
I found a research paper on this genus in India, and I think this fly might be a G. soror

The research paper is:
K J, David & Hancock, David. (2017). A new species of Gastrozona Bezzi (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacinae: Gastrozonini) with an updated key to species from India. Zootaxa. 4216. 55. 10.11646/zootaxa.4216.1.3.

Accessible at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/312251992_A_new_species_of_Gastrozona_Bezzi_Diptera_Tephritidae_Dacinae_Gastrozonini_with_an_updated_key_to_species_from_India
Hope this helps. :)
