Thank you Satish ji for the information. The leaflets in my pics are certainly more than mentioned as for A. concinna. As you have mentioned and also Flora of Mah. vol II mentions leaflets 40-50 pairs, so in all likelihood it is A. pennata (Linn.) Willd. However, the volume does not mention or describe the species A. concinna, so that remains unverified. I do not have any other reference for it except S.Ingalhalikar, Vol II.
