As I recall, RAEC has a light blue body to the cap, dark blue curtain.
R. Sigs is found as per the one you show, also with the front peak of light blue and front peak of dark blue, unpiped. The light blue is a paler shade than the one you show, but if it's Indian made that could explain the less than exact colour match.
As you say, piping's not always "accurate" compared to published references like the Phillips booklet, Colored Field Service Caps: Infantry, British Uniforms and Insignia of World War II and others.
