Default Are these original British CBI Theater paratrooper insignia

I could use some more help with the authentication of a few more pieces of insignia from my collection. I wasn't sure if this post should go here or under Indian Badges. These pieces were supposedly worn in the China Burma India Theater of Operations during WW2. Thanks in advance for your help.

They are original. I have the impression the bullion examples are more modern.
