Hallo Garg ji,

Garg ji,
As I can see this mushroom is growing on dung so is coprophilous. This appears to be species of Coprinus. I will try if I can identify the species from the pic.
Regards

Garg ji, although here also gills images are missing but fortunately annulus is visible and can be seen growing on dung so growing habit is known.

So this is most likely Panaeolus semiovatus (Bolbitiaceae)
I am saying this on basis of my experience also as this species is found growing on horse dung, i have posted its images earlier from Rohtang Pass.
