Echeveria ?
The plant resembles to Echeveria embricata
Des not seem to match with Echeveria embricata.
Pl. see the link
Please pardon me, I think this is funny to try without any literature to species level id a special plant group. that has numerous hybrids and cultivars.
Yet I spent some time on it. What drew my attention is erect racemose inflorescence and perhaps glabrous nature. I tried to search that line, found some interesting info... please remember the following links are for reading only, not to suggest anything -

Thank you
I think, this plant has now been cracked. Kindly see the link given below. It appears most likely Echeveria pulvinata.

Thanks Sir, but is it that easy - http://www.plantoftheweek.org/week171.shtml? or maybe a cultivar.
Can it be some improved cultivar? I clicked it at University of Horticulture and Forestry, Solan. I talked to Dr. Bharti from dept. of  Floriculture in that University regarding this. She suggested E. pulvinata.
Thank you Sir for confirming, the plant looked glabrous to me.

echeveria sp
may be e agavoides cultivar
Looks quite close to the one posted by me Echeveria pulvinata 'Ruby Blush'.
no
its not the 'ruby blush'
how can one be that specific, not scientific ..lets stay within scientific possibilities...
=
at most it could be ided as echeveria pulvinata
but short of the flowering spike anatomy and flowers itself even that id is not certain...
It could also be a echeveria pulidonis...
but more strangely I also can not rule out a graptoveria...
and for that matter a dudleya which grows on the precarious rocky cliffs on the coastal "mountain cliffs"
==
... I'll be happy with echeveria sp at this juncture.
