Could this be correct?! This looks more like a translation of sage the person than of sage the herb !

Sounds like someone used a software translator. i'll ask a Kashmiri human for the name in Kashmiri (but I don't have the script
)..

The botanical name for sage is Salvia Officinalis. It grows around the Mediterranean. (Greek name - faskomilo.) It also grows sparingly in India:

As to where you, tumparc, might find it in Kolkata, I can imagine you would find dried sage imported perhaps. But fresh sage might be difficult to find. What were you planning on using it for?
Here I am quoting the above article:

I can bring some dried sage ... I think I'll be in Kolkata after Diwali. If that will help, PM me.
