I was reading this with some misunderstanding because I have never heard of Ioodiana. I thought you mistyped a lowercase "l" instead of and uppercase "L" in your thread title.
Do I now understand that you read the first character on the scroll of your very fine picture if the beautiful badge as "I"? I read it as a clearly "L".
BTW, the different spellings of the same pronunciation Loodhiana/Ludhiana. I have no idea when the designation and/or scrolls where adapted to the then usual spelling. But I have seen pictures of a badge with a scroll reading Ludhiana. The badge is a bit different, it is has a (smaller) Quoit with XV within and the scroll attached below and a KC above.
