Or can it be Potentilla gerardiana (syn: Potentilla fragarioides Hook.f. (non L.)), which has distribution in Western Himalaya as per POWO.

POWO does not show distribution of Potentilla fragarioides L. in the Himalayan area. 

BSI checklist also does not mention its distribution in India.

Garg ji, my ID was based on Flora Simlensis. I'll check for authority. You have rightly pointed out. I'll mention authority in my future posts as Saroj ji is doing.

Regards  

[Dr. Anil Kumar Thakur]

According to FLORA SIMLENSIS by Col. Sir Henry Collet, it is Potentilla fragarioides Linn. 
It is matching. 
According to POWO:
https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:728111-1
It occurs in North India as well. There are many plants that POWO does not show as distributed in Indias, still, they exist. 
The error of judgment may be there on behalf of Sir Collett. We need to see it in a new light.

Thank you, Garg ji

Kindly give me some time to go through other Floras from H.P.

As per eFlora of Pakistan P. fragarioides of FRI is P. gerardiana. Collet has mostly followed FBI.
