Default My British Indian Army badge collection

This is my collection as it stands now. Have been collecting Indian on and off over the past six or seven years in conjunction with my British badges.
As to be expected, pre 1922 are relatively few, relative to '22 to '48 badges.

It may well be but the photograph is so small that I cannot make it out. The legs of the peacock and the scroll look wrong for the Burma Rifles but I wanted to be sure that it was't a rare variation.

It is indeed the 72nd Punjabis, not Burma Rifles.
