Yes it is surely something from I. lemannii complex however the case is not as simple as it may look initially. As Impatiens lemannii Hook.f. & Thomson is described based on Griffith's collection from Ottipore, Afghanistan far away from Himachal Pradesh. In Flora Iranica C.Grey-Wilson treated this species having three infraspecific taxa viz. I. lemannii subsp. lemannii var. lemannii, I. lemannii subsp. lemannii var. multiflora Grey-Wilson and I. lemannii subsp. kurramensis Grey-Wilson showing complexity of this species. Additionally this is not rare infact its abundant in its locality (it may be leen less known as it's distribution is in much West and is possibly not found in East of Himachal Pradesh and beyond). For now we may treat it as Impatiens cf. lemannii Hook.f. & Thomson, i am hopefull that i will have a better clear answer by next year as we (i & Dr. W. Adamowski) are already working to resolve this another Impatiens complex.
