Looks like Eclipta species. Check at the species level

Dear Mr. Garg,

Altitude is not matching with the Eclipta prostrata and did not find any match to Conyza and  Blumea.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Dear Mr. Garg,

Still not convinced abut the ID as flower color looks 

different compared to the image given in the FoI.

Thank you.

As per Flora of China:

... Ray florets white, reduced to tube, filiform, 0.3-0.65 mm, 1/5 or less as long as pinkish style, lacerate at apex, glabrous; disk florets 6-9, yellow becoming reddish ...

Thus I think it is the same species.
