Yes Pankaj ji, it could be. According to GRIN R. hypagyrus should replace R. niveus Wall. because R. lasiocarpus Sm. ir correctly R. niveus Thunb. It seems R. hypagyrus has several varieties (like R. niveus Wall in FBI). Would be interesting to know which variety this one is. Similar plant growing in Manali, Nainital, Kashmir is evidently different with larger leaflets (terminal often reaching 6-8 cm) and whtish ti light pink flowers whereas R. viveus var. hypagyrus (according to FBI) has 1.5-2.5 cm cm long leaflets.
