Hi, Rohit ji,

To me it appears like a merigold plant (Gainda), which we used to grow in our houses. See the links: http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/how-to-draw-flowers-and-plants-84.jpg (a drawing), http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic-art/365165/113819/French-marigold (a pix).

Hi Friends,
At first sight I thought it was Marigold too. However, there is some
difference. The leaves are not serrated. According to me the leaves of
Marigold should have serrations at the edge. This must be something
else.
However, I am not sure. At first sight I thought it was Marigold.
Regards
Yazdy Palia.

My appologies, it does have serrations.
