Nidhan Sir,

First i will tell you why it is not *Phaseolus vulgaris* L. In
*Phaseolus* corolla
morphology is different than *Vigna* or *Dolichos* like regular legume
species. please check foc illustration (specially no.2 and 5) -
http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=116327&flora_id=2.
Corolla in *Phaseolus* mostly features-

   1. standard suborbicular, quite different to other legume genera
   2. wings equalling or exceeding standard
   3. keel beaked, spiral
   4. in *P. v.* calyx teeth is much smaller
   5. in *P. v.* flower is subtended by persistent ovate bracteoles

The correct species images can be seen at

My guess is that you identified your species based on uploads like -

   - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/sF4PXYr2UsU/FYltXojWCwAJ

Now, I will try to identify your species, featured by regular legume
flower, long calyx teeth-

   1. please check http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/265239/ (efi
   also features this species)
   2. for varieties check
   
http://www.tropicalforages.info/key/Forages/Media/Html/Macrotyloma_uniflorum.htm
   3. though your 2nd pic seems to show cylindrical pod but immature pods
   are flattened (compressed) as can be seen in 5th pic of
   https://groups.google.com/d/msg/indiantreepix/sF4PXYr2UsU/FYltXojWCwAJ
   4. hint of flattened pod can also be seen in your 1st pic

Your species is *Macrotyloma uniflorum* ILam.) Verdc.

Thank you
Regards
