Thank you very much Smita Ji, will check for species.

Smita Ji,

This is most likely Hygrophila polysperma (Roxb.) T. Anderson.

Checked Lepidagathis, didn't help :(

Thank you Sir. But it is Hygrophila polysperma (Roxb.) T.Anderson, as had been identified later on. 

It's a very common aquatic herb here, with a varying morphology depending upon the water level of the tank.
