Uploading what I consider Acmella uliginosa (Sw.) Cass. (Syn: Spilanthes uliginosa Sw.) from Herbal Garden Delhi.

Detailed key I have given in another thread concerning Spilanthes. 

The species has cone shaped radiate heads, 7-9 mm long, 5-6 mm broad, leaves cuneate at base, disc orange yellow and achenes ciliate long magin with two small pappus teeth.
