| 释义 |
The Government of India has declared repugnant some battle honours earned by Indian Army units, which are descended from erstwhile units of the British East India Company. Indian Army units do not inscribe these battle honours on their colours and do not celebrate commemoration days associated with these battles.

Battle honours prior to this period have either been lost due to disbandment, are now held only by units transferred to Pakistan during Partition, or are considered by the Indian Government to be repugnant.[1]{{rp|78}} Other pre-World War I battle honours not considered by the Indian Government to be repugnant are as follows :[1]{{rp|297}}
