Garg ji, Congrats for the very nice pixs of mushrooms with the close up of the undersurface. This is the way all fungi should be covered. This definitely help in the correct identification of the form. Yes, it is *Coprinellus disseminatus* (Pers.: Fr.) SF Gray (Coprinaceae) *Coprinus disseminatus* and *Pseudocoprinus disseminatus* as synonyms.
It is small conical agaric, massed distinctively on stumps of trees and spreading to adjacent soil. Cap is pallid buff or clay with greyish tinge. Flesh thin, fragile but *not autodigesting* as in most *Coprinus* sp. It is edible i.e. not poisonous but worthless.
