Yes Vijayasankar ji It is Euphorbia for sure Perhaps Euphorbia prolifera. Alok ji, please supply a close up of cyathium showing glands (innermost flower-like structure). This species looks similar to E. wallichii but grows at lower altitudes ascending to around 2000m, whereas W. wallichii grows above 2500 m or so.
