Thiruvengadam jee this is

Zinnia sp.
Family: Asteraceae

[mani nair]

Ajinkya ji, this is not Zinnia.  See the leaves, zinnia leaves are different.  It is a marigold.  In marathi it is called zandu.

Regards,

Mani.

I am pretty sure of this to be Zinnia even the leaves are matching as
well as the bud which are out of focus. Just attaching some macro
shots of the same plant from Dehradun gardens.

Inflorescence appears to be that of a garden Zinnia hybrid, amongst leaves of marigold (Tagetes sp.) and marijuana (Cannabis sativa).
