Is this Indian Army?

This has been an unknown item for many years as the regimental marking has never been identified. The khaki slide suggests Middle East or Indian/SEAC use

It has been suggested that it may be that of an Indian cavalry regiment.

I have also posted it in the British Army section to increase the chances of an answer.

Thoughts appreciated.

Found an old thread showing NAAFI patches.

"NAAFI staff also served onboard Royal Navy ships, they wore No 8 naval action working dress with epaulette slides with the NAAFI badge on it."

I may be wrong, but I do not believe it is an Indian Army regimental flash. The colours would appear to indicate a tri-service organisation.

Sorry, I was unable to open the link posted by postwarden but it would appear the mystery has been solved on the other thread.
