Dear Dineshji,
I think the plant is M. incana as the infl is interrupted throughout. Indeed I 
treat the incana and royleana as vars. of M. longifolia. I am providing key 
here for clarification.

1a. Spikes slender, interrupted throughout; calyx 1 / 1.5 mm
            long, teeth 
less than half the length of the 
tube            M. 
incana
b.             
 Spikes relatively stouter, uninterrupted or interrupted
only at base; calyx 1.5 – 2.5 mm long, teeth more than
half the length to as long as the 
tube                                    
 2
2a.       Leaves sessile or nearly so; spikes 
compact
            rarely 
interrupted at 
base                                    
 M. longifolia
  b.       Leaves petiolate; spikes usually 
interrupted at base M. royleana
