Any idea about the family ?

Something from Marasmiaceae as per SK 2614 14 April 2020 - Mycophyta ?

..., do you have any pictures of underside?
Was the stipe tough or brittle?
Can you microscope this specimen?
Seems like Laccaria pumila, but without a picture of underside and knowing the the habitat, it would be just a guess.

Unfortunately I did not take picture of underneath.

..., please compare your specimen to Laccaria spp. (L.pumila for instance)

Looks like.

Does it not look more close to Gerronema or Trogia as provided by you in SK 2614 14 April 2020 - Mycophyta, as to me both plants look similar ?

No. It's Laccaria.
