I think it looks different from images at

https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:102034-2

It appears close to images and keys herein as per per

Dear Garg ji,

Based on both the key you provided in your message, and although these species are similar (and both appear to be morphologically variable), I would still stand by my earlier identification as Euphorbia thymifolia. 

Best wishes,

John

Point taken. Thanks! I think I may have been thrown off by the leaf morphology in particular. FYI attached are the descriptions from Saldanha's Flora of Karnataka (volume 2).
