Thanks, …
Appears to be from the same Genus but may a different species.

Looks like some Amaranthaceae species
may be some Gomphrena…! though not sure… 

………..plant looks like Allamania nodiflora from Amaranthaceae, but the colour of inflorescence is different.

It looks alright to be Allmania nodiflora, except flower colour

Thanks, ….
I couldn’t open e-Flora link (may be some temp. problem).
Where is the flower colour mentioned?
I could find this species i.e. Allmania nodiflora (syn. Celosia nodiflora, Almania longipedunculata) in Forest flora of A.P. & Karnataka at links (These didn’t mention any flower colour):

Another link 

One illustration:

I don’t have any doubts about it being Allmania nodiflora

Yeah this is of course Allamania nodiflora 

Please confirm my plant with yellow flower is also Allmania nodiflora.

Here are the links for which … require confirmation as Allmania nodiflora:
http://pick14.pick.uga.edu/mp/20p?see=I_PAO7477&res=640
I think it should be Allmania nodiflora as per earlier discussion in this regard.

It is Allmania nodiflora 

This publication describes Allmania nodiflora as semi-aquatic weed. I found it in rocky area far from water.

Please help me in identifying this Amaranthaceae herb. Is this a Gomphrena sp.?
Location: Villupuran dist., TN
Alt.: 120 M ASL
Date: 25 Aug 2014

May be Allamania nodiflora var. roxburghii.

Suporting …

This appears to be Allmania nodiflora (L.) R.Br. ex Wight var. nodiflora rather than Allmania nodiflora var. roxburghii Hook. fil. as per images and details herein.

Allmania nodiflora

Excellent work, …! Thanks for sharing some of the not-so-common varieties/forms of Allmania.
I only collected var. dichotoma, var. nodiflora, and A. longipedunculata from Tamil Nadu.
Thanks again for sharing the pictures.

Wonderful work, …

Thank you, …,

My ambition is to record all our native plants with photographs, since they are most useful and easy tools to know our  wealth; this a small step in this journey, UGC India has sanctioned me a project for digitalising the florstic resources of Velugonda hills  of E.ghats; the native place of Pterocarpus santalinus, Boswellia ovalifoliolata, Decalepis hamiltonii, etc., I am recording almost all parts of a plant in photographs. I am really astonished sometimes, and enjoying the work. JSGamble is my role-model.

Thanks, …, Best wishes in your wonderful journey!!!

Reminds me of Amaranthaceae. Not Gomphrena though. More closer to Celosia. 

I suspect Allmania nodiflora. 
…? You have recently seen it ! 

Thanks … It (flower structure) does not look like that of Allmania that I have.
Let us wait for comments.

Yes sir, let us wait! 

Allmania only, 

Thanks, …, for the initial id.
