Previously titled ’28th Punjab Infantry’ the Regiment became the ’28th Punjabis’ in 1903. During the Great War a second battalion, 2/28th, was raised (1918) and served in India. At the same time the original Battalion became the ‘1/28th’. The 2nd Battalion was disbanded in 1919. 1/28th Punjabis became the 4th Battalion, 15th Punjab Regiment in 1922.

“Annulus” is a nice word, but I assume that “quoit” is a better known word for the chakram used as a weapon by the Sikhs and is a well known symbol representing Sikhs. Together with the Moslem cresent they represent the religious classes that formed the regiment.
