Thank you Peter for taking time to reply. There were Indian troops in Aden from early times, but I think that they only started regularly sending battalions from:

1882-1883 22 Bombay Inf.
1884-1885 4 Bombay Rifles.
1886-1887 9 Bombay Inf.
1888-1889 3 Bombay Light Inf.
1890-1891 17 Bombay Inf.
1892-1893 16 Bombay Inf.
1894-1896 13 Bombay Inf.
1897
1898
1899 10 Bombay Light Inf.
1900 5 Bombay Inf.
1901 1 Grenadier Bombay Inf.
This continued up until about 1928
As you can see there are a couple of gaps.
