Certainly not in my capacity, Garg ji !!! Many thanks to Abhay Pandhare for help with the ID ... facebook <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fgroups%2Findianflora%2Fpermalink%2F3421524297888885%2F&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNHuMwObmRV3EPZ0w2nrL-bx1Dz5nQ>.
I talked to him later; he is a succulent plant lover, and he has quite a number of plants in his home garden. He knows (recognizes) his plants very well. He provided the ID as *Melocactus acispinosus*. I am sure this must be a popular cactus among hundreds or thousands of many others. I checked across The Plants List, GBIF and found *Melocactus acispinosus* Buining & Brederoo as synonym of *Melocactus bahiensis* infrasp. *bahiensis* . Regards.
