Thanks Werzik! Confirms my suspicions. The Greater racket-tail was the only one I could find with that tuft on its forehead but it had no racket-tail.
They lack their rackets when they're immature and will be developed later in no time. Here are some pics I could find on the internet : http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?Bird_ID=2232&Bird_Image_ID=87866, http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?Bird_ID=2232&Bird_Image_ID=32489. An immature bird also has some aberrant vocalizations like cat-like sound which threw me off several times.
