Perhaps it would be interesting to know whether both F. indica and F.
vaillantii grow in India or not, and what is this species. Here is key from
eFlora of Pakistan

 Bracts equalling or slightly longer than pedicel in fruits; corolla pale
pinkish to white; fruits usually rounded or very obtuse at apex; leaf
segments obscurely channelled or not

 Fumaria 
indica<http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=242422492>
+Bracts shorter than pedicel (1/2-3/4 as long) in fruits; corolla ±
pink-violet with dark tips; fruits usually minutely apiculate (or obtuse);
leaf segments flat
