Many thanks Rajdeo ji for this important key -- of the stalked gland on the petiole. A search on internet led me to this PDF ... http://www.new.dli.ernet.in/rawdataupload/upload/insa/INSA_1/20005b6d_74.pdf
Found my plant to be *Chamaecrista pumila* (Cassia pumila)./ Many thanks to you and Shrikant ji fo the ID. Prashant's plant does not seem to be illustrated in the PDF; yet pending for ID. Regards.
