Dear Gargji

Please help in indentifying this aquatic/marshland plant with small inconspicuous yellow flowers and alternatively arranged triangular, densely packed leaves leaves looking like rosettes resembling Callisia Repens.

Location: Karla Near Lonavala Pune

 it is not Lindernia (funnel shaped dotted corolla) or Hygrophila (labiate purple flowers) as these have different flowers. Though both these species were found in  same aquatic habitat.

Forwarding again for Id assistance please.

Tried with Rotala, but I think it looks different.

Rotala has different flowering pattern with many purple flowers , this is definitely not rotala. 

Not Ammania either which also has different flower.

The dense arrangement of leaves is strange with yellow small inconspicuous, invisible flower, corolla remains hidden under green calyx.

Thank you Gargji...

It reminds me of Hygrophila polysperma, Indian Swampweed, a very variable plant.

Thanks for your email, Hygrophila has Labiate funnel like flowers, but this plant has yellow small flowers as u can see in the picture. 

I agree with you leaf arrangement and color can vary, does resembles another common species here Hygrophila serpyllum.
