Dinesh ji, 

I think this is similar to one that I had photographed from Panvel & posted earlier.

Let me check and get back.

Aarti

Dinesh ji,

Just a guess....leaves in your picture and mine posted earlier, the leaves resemble Blumea oxyodonta, 'Spiny Leaved Blumea' as in 'flowersofindia'. 

Kindly have a look.

Thank you very much Garg ji for resurfacing the query.

Many thanks Lalithamba ji for the ID.

May I take Blumea glomerata DC. as synonym of Blumea fistulosa (Roxb.) Kurz

Regards.

Dinesh

[J.M. Garg]

Thanks, Lalithamba ji.

But I am not getting convinced as per High resolution specimens at

GBIF

NHN

[J.M. Garg]

I find lot of variations in the Blumea species.

On perusing detailed specimens as below, I seems to agree with Lalithamba ji's id:
