I think Blumea is one of the most complicated genus. Unfortunately, I think we do not have one single expert only of Blumea (along with Conyza).

So, what I am going to suggest may entirely be wrong -

Since heads are not sessile we may reject probability of hieraciifolia, but there is photograph of peduncled capitulum. Yet I skip this for heads in the attached photographs in this thread looks smaller. I am telling all the time that sizes are important in every respect. Finger tips are useless here.

We have B. oxyodonta in our database, I also reject this as the species here doesn't look like decumbent small one. Please try to provide as much description as you can in future.

Our database of B. eriantha does feature photograph of this species. The species has sessile leaves at least in upper part. Please check probability.

I repeat I can be 100% wrong. It's not that easy.

Thank you

Regards

Thank you Surajit ji for spending so much time and effort on the analysis...

Yes I agree, the photographs do not show all angles of the plant....will try to be more organised in future, though it is a bit difficult when you are travelling with family who is least interested in plants :)

I went through all posts of B. oxyondonta and B. eriantha from our database. My personal view (a layman's view) is that it looks closer to B. eriantha than B. oxyodonta but it looks closest to an unidentified Blumea post by Dinesh ji from Kulang-gad

Hopefully, we get some inputs from the experts...

Thanks and regards

I think it is close to Blumea oxyodonta as per images, details and references herein.

Yes, Garg Ji, I too agreed with B.oxyodonta,

With kind regards.

 Thanks Garg ji and Paradesi ji for concluding on the ID.

On further scrutiny, I think more closer to Blumea malcolmii rather than Blumea oxyodonta as per images, details and references in these links.
