Kindly help to identify the species.
The genus is Mimosa.
I have checked the key on efloraofindia site. But it is confusing for a layman like me.
Can anybody suggest tips for identification in the field. When I visit the place next time I can look for those distinguishing characteristics.
I can post more photos if it helps in identifying the species.

Looks like Mimosa rubicaulis Lam. Please check Mimosa !
I agree Can you show us the number of pinnae in a leaf clearly, to go through the keys and finally decide on the species ? agree with … need to count the pinnae, before the key….. otherwise this is a dx stop at Mimosa sp.
I counted the pinnae at few places. The average is 13 to 16 pairs.
I am also attaching two photos for your reference.
If this is not sufficient I will do another field trip in future.
Thanks, …, You are giving is no. of leaflet pairs.
But this is a compound leaf with many pinnae. Each pinnae has many pair of leaflets. Pl. see

Any body can provide me the Plant Mimosa rubicaulis for authentication.
It will be in flowering now in scrub forests of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka.
