White on Blue Gurkha Para Battalion Badge

[3battalion]

Here is an unusual badge, that looks well made, but has a design I haven't come across before?

I don't know if it's original or not so would appreciate any assistance?

Hi Paul,
The design is for 154 (Gurkha) Parachute Battalion worn from 1943-45..

However it should be white on a rifle green backing so IMO its duff. Lots of copies of both 153 and 154 around.
