Thanks Garg ji, Looking at all possibilities, I feel strongly that, the pictures above belong to, *A. malabarica*. Will make changes accordingly in flickr notes.
Here are keys based on bracts, provided by one of my contacts at flickr <https://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/10647832033/>, 1 ... Bracts deeply 5-lobed ... ... *A. brachystachya* 1 ... Bracts dentate, not deeply lobed 2 ... Teeth of bracts with gland tipped hairs ... ... *A. malabarica* 2 ... Teeth of bracts without gland tipped hair 3 ... bracts ending in long subulate hispid teeth ... ... *A. ciliata* 3 ... bracts ending in shallowly dentate tips ... ... *A. indica* Regards.
