I may be totally wrong, but this badge looks to me like something that has been knocked up by someone in a shed, supposedly worn by officers the quality does not look anything that would have been worn by an officer.

Indian army badges were and still are made by various makers, many local and cast, but officers of the Indian Army generally had badges made that were superior quality, often hallmarked in Great Britain.

This is only an opinion and I would love to see proof of this being an original badge.
