Identification required for this Asteraceae sp.from Ganderbal Kashmir: 3 high res. images.

To me it appears to be some Aster species. Is there any yellow flowered one in your area?

It resembles with Pulicaria dysenterica

Yes, possible.
Images at Pulicaria dysenterica (L.) Gaertn. from plains look a bit different.
However, it seems to match as per POWO specimen.
