Yes dear Prashant, I did take a look already ... I saw your message to Neil ji earlier. I see it as same plant.
It is now blooming everywhere in and around Mumbai and Thane (to the extent where I have visited). Typical habitats are roadsides (includes highways NH3, NH4, NH8, NH17). Within forest areas, it is found occasionally along trails. Yesterday, I had been to Kolad (in Konkan) ... there too, I found this plant growing along hedges. In general, it is found more common in urban area (typically growing along with other annuals). I request Neil ji (and Almeida ji) to re-consider the plant. Regards.
