About Indian Army

A rectangular black field with a thin double-lined gold border contains a gold emblem and wordmark. Centered near the top is the national Lion Capital (four lions back-to-back) rendered in gold; beneath it two stylised gold sabre-like swords are crossed in an X. Below the crossed swords sits a bold, all-caps gold wordmark reading "INDIAN ARMY." The emblem and text use a flat, single-colour gold on a solid black background.

The composition is formal and highly symmetrical: the Lion Capital is aligned above the intersection of the crossed swords, and the wordmark is centered beneath them. The overall look is emblematic and military — restrained ornamentation, geometric border, and high contrast between gold and black.
