The Bombay Army was one of the three Presidency Armies of the East India Company. In 1859, following the Indian Mutiny, the armies were restructured when India was brought under the control of the British Government. The Bombay Army ceased to exist when the official Indian Army was formed in 1895.
A list of Bombay Army regiments can either be found in the Bombay Army Category or alphabetically, by type, in Bombay Army Regiments.
