I think E. umbellata only. In E. parvifolia petals are yellow inside and leaves much more greener on upper surface.

I could not find difference/ keys between Elaeagnus parvifolia Wall. and Elaeagnus umbellata C. P. Thunb. ex A. Murray, as two appears quite close on net. 

Flora of Pakistan only lists Elaeagnus umbellata with distribution as Japan, Assam, China, Afghanistan and the Himalayas from Kashmir to Bhutan. Flora of China also only lists this species with distribution as Afghanistan, Bhutan, China, India, Japan, Korea, Nepal; naturalized in North America.

While Flora of Nepal only lists Elaeagnus parvifolia Wall. ex Royle with distribution as Afghanistan, Himalaya (Kashmir to Bhutan), Assam, W. China

Flora of Bhutan also only mentions only Elaeagnus parvifolia Wall. ex Royle & not Elaeagnus umbellata Thunb.

Also, Catalogue of Life gives distribution of Elaeagnus parvifolia Wall. as Bhutan, Chumbi, India, Nepal, while for Elaeagnus umbellata C. P. Thunb. ex A. Murray, it gives distribution as China (Anhui, Fujian, Gansu, Guizhou, Hebei, Hubei, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Liaoning, Nei Mongol, Ningxia, Qinghai, Shaanxi, Shandong, Shanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Zhejiang), Taiwan, Tibet, Cambodia, Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu), South Korea, North Korea, Myanmar [Burma], Thailand, Pakistan (Kurram, Swat, Hazara, Murree), Jammu & Kashmir (Kashmir, Poonch), Pakistani Kashmir (Mirpur), ….  

In view, I am taking this as Elaeagnus parvifolia Wall.

E. parviflora Wall. is now known as E. angustifolia var. orientalis. E. angustifolia var. angustifolia is easily differentiated from E. umbellata by being mostly a tree, leaves greyish on both surfaces, narrower less than 1.5 cm broad, style glabrous, endocarp neither ribbed nor woolly. var orientalis being found in Western Himalayas is difficult to differentiate from E. umbellata in leaves being greenish above, and up to 3 cm broad like latter, but differentiated by glabrous style endocarp not ribbed, larger fruit 1.5 to 2 cm long (in E. umbellata leaves greenish above, up to 3 cm broad, style hairy, endocarp ribbed, fruit 8-9 mm long)
