Thanks to Kedar Champhekar for informing us that this is a Jewel Beetle (Burpestidae family).
Viewer HK Kaidin tells us that this is a Sternocera crysis.
Buprestidae is a family of beetles known as jewel beetles or metallic wood-boring beetles because of their glossy iridescent colors. The family is among the largest of the beetles, with some 15,000 species known in 450 genera. In addition, almost 100 fossil species have been described.
The larger and more spectacularly colored jewel beetles are highly prized by insect collectors. The elytra of some Buprestidae species have been traditionally used in beetle wing jewellery and decoration in certain countries in Asia, like India, Thailand and Japan.

This unique insect has cockroach like fore wings and buzzes into a really fast flight like our common housefly. It has big compound eyes with two antennae and a green upper body like an alien.
