Thanks a lot, Rawat ji, for the clarification. Flora of China<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=200013659> (with *Triumfetta tomentosa* Bojer & *Triumfetta* *tomentosa* var. *calvescens* Franch. as syn.), shows distribution of *Triumfetta cana* Blume in India as does Annotated Checklist of the Flowering Plants of Nepal<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=110&taxon_id=200013659> & Tropicos | Name - Triumfetta cana Blume<http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=web&cd=11&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CFYQFjAK&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tropicos.org%2FName%2F32200897&ei=wZA6U5C8IIHWrQfIrIHADQ&usg=AFQjCNGPaszAEDdsLiPeQo9lDHH_Tzum0Q&sig2=3S-aEQMiBK5tu1rkbAUyiQ> (Syn. *Triumfetta tomentosa* Bojer <http://www.tropicos.org/Name/32200439> & *Triumfetta tomentosa* var. *calvescens* Franch. <http://www.tropicos.org/Name/50314491>). Pdf of Flora of china is available at this link<http://flora.huh.harvard.edu/china/pdf/PDF12/Triumfetta.pdf>, published in 2007. The Plant List ver 1.1 shows *Triumfetta* *tomentosa* var. *calvescens* Franch.is a synonym <http://www.theplantlist.org/1.1/about/#synonym> of *Triumfetta* *cana* Blume<http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl1.1/record/tro-32200897>
In view, I think *Triumfetta cana* Blume is the current accepted name of *Triumfetta tomentosa* Bojer. Mystery about *T. obliqua *still remains & you may be correct in this regard. I request other expert also to through some light in this matter.
