Pleas check https://sites.google.com/site/efloraofindia/species/a—l/f/fabaceae Last image is most important for ID. It is Rhynchosia aurea. It differs from R .minima in having a globular pod, against 1.5 to 2cm long flt pod in R .minima. Flower differs too …R .minima is said to have smaller flowers, standard up to 8mm, in R.aurea 12 to 15 mm in various keys … but I regularly see R .minima with bigger than 8 mm standard. So , to me pod is most important point to look for.
Please help me in identifying this twiner on ground. Is this any Rhynchosia aurea?

It must be Rhynchosia minima. Check the size of leaves with description I think more closer to images at Rhynchosia aurea (Willd.) DC. rather than images at Rhynchosia minima (L.) DC.
