Should be O. dehradunensis only
Since two species are now treated as distinct we need to know the original description of O. dehradunensis to know exact differences between the two besides the differences in stamen filaments mentioned by me. Other characters mentioned by me seem to vary. I must be mentioned that Raizada (1976) did not describe a new species, and rather gave a new name to O. intermedia A. Rich., 1841 described from Cuba, a name that could not stand because it was given earlier by Steudel (1840; based on Biophytum intermedium Wight, 1839) to a different species (now synonym of Biophytum intermedium Wight). This is what I could find from eFlora of North America where both species (O. intermedia A Rich and O. latifolia) are described:
O. dehradunensis (syn: O. intermedia A Rich.) O. latifolia
1. Bulbs usually clustered, stolons present 1. Bulb solitary, stolons absent
2. Leaflet lobes truncate at apex 2. leaflet lobes rounded at apex
3. Flowers tristylous 3. Flowers semihomostylus
4. longer stamen filaments 5-6 mm long, hairy in upper 4. Longer filaments 4 mm long, pubescent, without
part with 1 mm long appendages on outside; shorter appendages, short ones hairy; leaves smaller
filaments glabrous
5. Capsule ellipsoid, 3-8 mm. 5. Capsule cylindric 4-6 mm
Leaves of O. latifolia should look like these

Many many thanks Gurcharan ji for taking up validating the plant ID in the post.
I see the leaf of the plant in the post is different than that seen (leaflet lobes rounded at apex) for O. latifolia in your cited links of Biodiversity of Cyprus and Dave's Garden.
With the basic differences that you have tabulated, plant in post matches O. dehradunensis.
I will revise the labels of the posted plant at flickr accordingly.
Regards.
Dinesh

Thanks, Singh ji,
I think the correct wording will be as below:
O. dehradunensis (syn: O. intermedia A Rich.) O. latifolia
1. Bulbs usually clustered, stolons present 1. Bulb solitary, stolons absent
2. Leaflet lobes truncate at apex 2. leaflet lobes rounded at apex
3. Flowers tristylous 3. Flowers semihomostylus
4.
Longer filaments 4 mm long, pubescent, without
appendages, short ones hairy; leaves smaller 4.
longer stamen filaments 5-6 mm long, hairy in upper part with 1 mm long
appendages on outside;
shorter filaments glabrous
5. Capsule ellipsoid, 3-8 mm. 5. Capsule cylindric 4-6 mm
