Default Royal Norfolk Regiment Theatre made badge

In all my years collecting Norfolk (on and off) I've never had the chance until recently to pick up a theatre made 2nd WW Cap badge. I'd welcome any comments.

Thanks Simon the assumption seems to be India, the 2nd served in Burma so it would make sense, but I was please to get it and on Fleabay too.

I have a R Norfolk's with the same markings (picked up in a junk shop in Selly Oak in July 1977).

Always wondered about them - IMW.

Imperial Metal Works?

Indian Manufacturing Works?

no idea, just guessing.
