Default Indian Pioneer Corps cap badge regulations
I found this correspondence amongst some papers belonging to an Officer of the 12th Frontier Force Regiment. It was brought to the attention of the powers that be that he was wearing the cap badge of his regiment despite being the C.O. of a Coy of the Indian Pioneer Corps.

This brought the reply that under Indian Army Order 804/44 all attached officers had been transferred to the Indian Pioneer Corps.

Luckily he had had the sense to order an Indian Pioneer Corps cap badge.
