It struck me too.
The description at e-flora of Karaikal District says: Cymes or subcorymbs axillary or terminal. Flowers ca. 4 cm across, white; bracts subulate-linear, 2.5 mm long; pedicel filiform.
Hope someone helps in knowing why sessiliflorum.
Regards.

Pedicels look much longer than those at your links, otherwise it looks Ok.
Pl. check description, if they are long also.

Hi Garg ji,
I referred Karaikal Flora because Karaikal is in Puducherry.
There they have listed only var. sessiflorum.

Description in other sites -
Cymes 3-flowered, peduncled or sessile; pedicel 2 cm long; ... India Biodiversity PortalKerala Plants
And a research note at JSTOR (restricted access) shows a limited note - may be to our help ... Notes on Two Jasmines from South India & Ceylon

Regards.
Dinesh

There is no illustration / photos / description in second link.
Garg ji, do you think it is just Jasminum angustifolium ?

Dear Lalithamba ji, any thoughts ?

Regards.

After Lalithamba ji's id and details in Pandian ji's thread as per Gamble at 23112019EPT27 and as per Flora of Peninsular India & Notes on Two Jasmines from South India & Ceylon, I feel your images may be of Jasminum angustifolium only.

Jasminum classification based on calyx length, no of flowers in cyme, peduncle etc; calyx and leaves are quite different in J.angustifolium; hence I feel a thorough revision of Jasminum is needed; keep it for further study without assigning to J.angustifolium
thank you

For the time being 'J.angustifolium ?' will be better.
