This must be a very early example of an Indian Pattern body on a CMP chassis, as distinct from a militarised civilan chassis.

Thanks Nick, excellent shot of a type of CMP I have never seen before. Must be an Indian assembled one, as it has typical features like the soft top cab without windshield and basic angle-iron-and-wood GS cargo body. This must have been the forerunner of the other
Indian pattern 15-cwt CMP you spotted on Pathé.
Cliff, Bill, thanks for your input as well. Indeed, eventually we
will find a good source for these Indian pattern vehicles! Anybody here with a distant cousin in India?
