Royal Indian Marine cap badge
This is certainly not an RIM officers cap badge (I have attached three images for comparison).
The problem is that although there is a lot of information on officers insignia there is very little on the insignia worn by Indian ratings prior to 1934.
It is therefore possible that this is a POs or CPOs cap badge. How does it compare in size to a more modern POs or CPOs cap badge?
