Dear Garg Jee
Namaskar.
The First three photos are Brassiopsis sheweliensis
Yeah ofcourse if one can identify plant just by observing picture of leaf
then he is using Wild Guess formula only... to feel Botanist[?]
otherwise for accurate identification you need to know Morphology ,
Taxonomy, rules of Nomenclature so on not easy task even for

Thanks Pankaj ji for your reply. The plant is the same. The potting medium
became stale and hence I repotted it to a new medium (coir peet). After the
