Dinesh ji I request you to kindly have relook at your specimens. Whereas the specimens posted by Satish Phadke ji clearly belong to O. basilicum var. pilosum, your plant to me looks to be with smaller leaves. Since we are desperately looking for authentic specimens of O. americanum, I request you to kindly observe the size of leaves, length of corolla, size of calyx in flower and also in fruit to allow us to reach any conclusion. O. americanum just a mini version of O. basilicum.
