Thanks Garg sir
But I have already checked at efloraofindia pages of Taxillus and other Loranthaceae but didn't find any match.

Thanks Saroj Kumar Kasaju sir.
But Helixanthera hookeriana looks different to me as it has distinct reddish brown midrib present in leaves lacking in our plant also the flower petals are much back curved and attached in our plant unlike Helixanthera hookeriana where they are less curved and free.

[J.M. Garg]

Thanks, Ashutosh ji.

Thanks Garg sir , yes it looks very close. It is also mentioned from subtropical Himalayas, up to 1500 m altitude,though I can't find Populus ciliata mentioned as its host as I have seen most of plants on Populus and also there's no records from Himachal Pradesh.
Here's the description and distribution detail by BSI
