There are two grasses which look just the same in vegetative stage. 1. Digitaria didactyla which is cultivated and 2. Axonopus compressus which is natural. If you can find out the inflorescence it can be easily distinguished as either of the two.

Thanks a lot Manoj Ji.
Generally they are trimmed and not allowed to grow.
But I will definitely keep a watch for the flowers and update when I find them.

Aarti

Garg Ji, Manoj Ji,
I could find the inflorescence today morning, which had escaped trimming.
Hope these pictures help.

Yes Paradesi Ji.
You were right.
Manoj Ji has also replied to me as follows
"Axonopus compressus (spikelets are on opposite sides of Axis and the leaf sheaths are compressed. Hence the name Axonopus compressus)"  
Regards,
Aarti

Thanks for forwarding my post Gurcharan Ji.
Manoj Chandran Ji has already identified this as Axonopus compressus.
Kindly check.

Aarti

This is what Manoj Chandran ji stated:
"There are two grasses which look just the same in vegetative stage. 1. Digitaria didactyla which is cultivated and 2. Axonopus compressus which is natural. If you can find out the inflorescence it can be easily distinguished as either of the two."

Garg ji, 
I have already shared pictures of the inflorescence in one of the earlier mail, in this same thread.
Kindly check.

Aarti
