Surajit ji,

Did it have good aroma? it does look like sparassis either  crispa or laminosa?
good edible mushroom.
BUT
don't eat it, unless, you confirm all the characters and have advice from experts.

You seem to be fotografing mushrooms. I use http://www.123pilze.de/DreamHC/Download/2010PilzbilderALLE.htm
you can compare the fotos with the pictures. There is a lot of information unfortunately in german but with some practice one gets used to it.
If you have difficulties or want to know a special expression, do write to me. I shall try to help.

Regards
Nalini

Madam,

The booklet i have informs that S. crispa can be found in Darjeeling and adjoining area, growing on pine trees. So, it can very well be S. laminosa.

I didn't smell it, so i am not sure if it has good aroma. The day before yesterday it has rotten and turned in to brownish colour.

Thank you very much.

Regards,

surajit

It may also be Sparassis crispa as I find images of Sparassis laminosa Fr. look different as per

https://www.gbif.org/species/2550234
http://www.fichasmicologicas.com/?micos=1&alf=S&art=563

https://www.treknature.com/gallery/Europe/Belgium/photo219756.htm

Also see how brownish rings are formed when it ages.

I found an interesting article for reading (including this species)
