In that case, it is more likely to be G. membranulifera as per POWO specimen and GBIF specimens.

Yes Garg ji, looks more like G, membranulifera
AI analysis Leaves crowded, outcurved, flowers in stemless domes, Flowers larger (vs carinata leaves narrower, erect not curved, stem often 10-15 cm, flowers tiny)
