Thank you.

Finally I got more clarity after lot of search, from keys and details in Flora of Bhutan

This species is also quite close as far as leaves are concerned to Angelica nubigena (C.B.Clarke) P.K.Mukh., as per details given in the link above.

Now I am sure about this being Angelica cyclocarpa (C.Norman) Cannon, after matching with the description.

Also see GBIF specimen at

Thank you Mr. Garg !

However, images for matching could not be found in the net .

Tetrataenium nepalense (D.Don) Manden. is recorded in 

Kathmandu Valley hills.
