Dear Mukesh,
In Sanskrit, an anusvar is always pronounced as a M, regardless of what
follows it. In Gujarati and other modern Indian languages, the anusvar's
pronounciation varies according to different rules. The rule you mentioned
about an anusvar being pronounced as a nasal (anunasika) is just one of
those rules. Hence, we have Paramahamsa.
-Mihir.
