Hi, Singh ji,
Pl. see Trees of Delhi: A Field Guide By Pradip Krishen (Details- 2004). It gives tree in Delhi as Taxodium mucronatum 

Also Flora of Pakistan only mentions Taxodium mucronatum 

Should we take this as Taxodium mucronatum (syn. of Taxodium distichum var. mexicanum (Carrière) Gordon & Glend. as per POWO) ?

Also there are keys in the Flora of China, but I am unable to apply them properly.

To confuse the matter further, POWO gives distribution of Taxodium distichum var. distichum in Bangladesh, Europe and S.America as being introduced, but does not give distribution of Taxodium distichum var. mexicanum (Carrière) Gordon & Glend. anywhere except for the native range.

Gymnosperms By S. P. Bhatnagar, Alok Moitra (1996) also mentions only Taxodium mucronatum
