help with ID
I am unable to identify this shell found on the west coast of India. It seems like it might belong to the NASSARIINAE family, but I haven't been able to find any matches.

I appreciate any help.

RE: help with ID
You did not show well the columella. With folds? Or otherwise ornamented?

Try to describe the columella. Your pictures do not show it.

It isn't really visible. I'm not sure how it is going to be without breaking or slicing the shell. Do you have any ideas as to which family it could belong to?
