Post by Kiltpin" Badge of the British monarch in India (1947-1950)" - India got her independence in 1947, why would the British monarch require a badge after that date?
Because from independence until it became a republic in 1950, India was
a Dominion. George VI had ceased to be Emperor, but became King of India
in the same way as he was King of the other Commonwealth Realms such as
Canada and Australia.
