Dear Pravin ji, ... pointed leaves suggest *A. marina* ... rounded, *A. officinalis*, ... other differences being flower size, stamens exerted / inserted.
In *A. officinalis*, the stamens protrude beyond petals, the flowers are comparatively twice the size of *A. marina*. However, will stand corrected with other friends' comment(s). Regards.
