Agree with Jagmohan ji.

Looks like Indigofera sp.

Alok ji, please clarify date of sighting also.

Probably Indigofera linifolia?

Dear Samir ji and Jagmohan Ji 

Thankyou very much for the ID. initially i also thought of the plant to be belonging to Indigofera genus but then i rejected it. i couldn't identify the plant therefore i think i loose my right to opine but i rejected my view of this plant being Indigofera solely because in Indigofera the flowers are present in an inflorescence and not as solitary flowers as is with this plant and secondly the leaves are compound in indigofera which also is not the case for this plant.

I may be wrong in my views. can you please guide me further?

Alok

Dear Alok ji,

Thank You for reconfirming the date.

Compound leaves which consist of only one leaflet (unifoliate compound leaves), are frequently difficult to distinguish from simple leaves, except by careful examination. Unifoliate leaves are also scored as ‘simple leaves’ so that these species will not be excluded from the identification key even when this feature is interpreted incorrectly.

It seems so as only one flower of the inflorescence is in bloom, the others are in 'bud' stage as seen from your image (-092).

Regards,

Samir Mehta
