The plant looks perennial. In that case the next possibility is *Euphorbia thomsoniana* Boiss., which occurs in JK at 2000 to 4200 m alt. The description in "The genus Euphorbia L. (Euphorbiaceae) in India by M.S.Binojkumar & N.P.Balakrishnan, indicated that it is perennial and further "stems many from a thick rootstock, sometime purplish red, unbranched or rarely branched". The further details of the description more or applies to the photographs. Therefore I think it can safely be identified as E. thomsoniana N. P.
