Thanks, Singh ji & Tanay ji.

I think it is not there in Concise Flowers of Himalayas by Oleg Polunin & Adam Stainton.

However, flowers look different (though may be same species as pointed out by Singh ji) in earlier thread on Myriactis nepalensis- may be due to different time of photographs:

[Gurcharan Singh]

The species is common in Himalayas and has white ray florets, but may be some times purplish

I think it should be Myriactis wightii as per thread: VOF Week: Asteraceae sp -1 for ID from VOF

[JM Garg]

Taking it as Myriactis nepalensis as per discussions in the post at Myriactis nepalensis on eFI

In view of Singh ji's post of Myriactis nepalensis, I think it more likely to be Myriactis wallichii as per keys in BSI Flora of India and FoC.

Also matches with images in FOI. 

POWO mentions M.javanica as a syn. of M.wightii.

Hi, Singh ji,

http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Wallich's%20Myriactis.html

Pl. have a relook.

Gurcharan ji.

   Your plants seems to agree well with this one on iNaturalist:

There seems to be a mix of images of two species at

True! The white one should be Myriactis wightii. I was referring to the one showing pinkish flowers.
