Respected Garg Ji, I also had some doubts about it based on leaf morphology. It was growing in the house of one Prof. from HPU, Shimla. She has procured the seeds of this culinary herb from the market. So, I did a lot of googling to confirm whether it is parsley or not. I came across literature which shows that parley is broadly of two types- curly leaf and flat leaf. However, some intermediate types also occur. The flat leaf types are generally having thin smooth leaves. But in my case, they are crisp, shiny and with more prominent veins and not so acute leaf tips. Before sending it to you and to efloraofindia, again did some googling and and found a few matching specimens. You might have seen in Apiaceae members that leaves vary from base to the top (different at the base, middle and at the top). In this case, inflorescence is matching with that of parsley. However, I believe in working till my full satisfaction. So, I will click some more pics of leaves. By this time fruits are also mature and I'll click some pics. I'll report back soon. Links where leaves are matching with my pics.
