Images here have uncanny similarity to your specimen . Achyranthes bidentata for me (I have recorded it from Matheran WG) .

And it is definitely not A. aspera or any of its varieties . Neither A. coynei for its lack of very long spikes .

Thanks, Rakesh ji, for the id.

As per keys at Flora of China:

2 (1)	Leaves obovate, broadly obovate, or elliptic-oblong, apex obtuse with a mucro; bracteoles spiny, 2-winged at base; pseudostaminode long fimbriate and ciliate at apex.		1 A. aspera
+	Leaves elliptic or elliptic-lanceolate, apex caudate; bracteoles spiny, 2-parted at base; pseudostaminode serrulate at apex.		2 A. bidentata

Pl. see FoC illustration.

As leaves are elliptic or elliptic-lanceolate and apex caudate, it should be Achyranthes bidentata

Hi, Saroj ji,

Can you post original of 3rd and 4th image. I want to understand bracteoles 2-parted at base ?
