Scarce WW2 Indian-Made British General Officer's Visor Cap

A scarce Indian-made British/Commonwealth army General officer's visor cap manufactured by ''Army & Navy Stores'' in Bombay, this cap features two raised ribs running around the cap, one above and one below the red wool staff officer's band to keep it in its correct position at all time, this feature alone confirms that this cap was made for and purchased by a staff officer as these ribs are not found on officer's caps below staff level.
The front of the peak is now slightly distorted due to years of storage but this adds to its charm, there are some old moth holes present to the crown (approx. 8) as seen in the images but small size, there's also one more to the side of the red wool band, it is evident that this cap was worn in a hot climate as there's sweaty/grubby finger marks to peak and darkening inside the crown, size is an approx. 6 7/8 ths, wonderful looking bullion badge, bronzed GS side buttons.
A most appealing cap with plenty of character.
