Many thanks, Satish ji, for validating the ID and providing its specifics. Current accepted name would be *Senna surattensis* (as Tabish has already pointed earlier in this thread).
How do we follow current accepted names in India ? Is there any body in India which regulates / maintains such information and knowledge ? If there is, does it imply that there would be chance that a species is known by different names across the world, at any given time ? Please respond only at your leisure. Regards.
