Leaves vary a lot in their lobation ......this species and A. tuberculatus , both grow in plenty every year ...their leaves 

very from entire to shallowly to deeply 3 to 5 lobed with lobes narrow to wide . 

Keys in many publications do not include leaf as a factor .

Thank you Dr. Singh !

If you simply say Abelmoschus manihot subsp. tetraphyllus (Roxb. ex Hornem.) Borss.Waalk., it will mean Abelmoschus manihot subsp. tetraphyllus var. tetraphylla and not Abelmoschus manihot subsp. tetraphyllus var. pungens

This is Abelmoschus manihot subsp. tetraphyllus var. pungens

I agree with Garg sir . Based on long straight hairs on epicalyx , this must be var. pungens .
