*[http://usacac.leavenworth.army.mil/cac2/cgsc/carl/nafziger.htm The Nafziger Collection of Orders of Battle] hosts a PDF catalogue including lists of “Stations of British Troops in India” (and a wider list for the whole army) transcribed from the sources such as the ''Army and Navy Gazette ''. The website says "Download the collection's [http://cdm16040.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/singleitem/collection/p4013coll11/id/1277 Finding Aid] (pdf format) to assist in navigating the titles available for viewing".
:It appears best to use the binoculars icon to search the Finding Aid. The search facility seems designed so that the words you enter only are found if they are next to each other, so you will need to use just one word such as ''India'', or use phrases which are title headings such as ''Stations of British Troops in India'', (not Stations India) (available 1836-19011904), ''British Regiments Serving in India'', (available 1816-1835), ''Distribution of the British Army'' (available 1836-1868, 1872, 1899-1903) ''Stations of the British Army'' (available 1869-1904). The latter two titles include British troops in India. For specific lists from 1862, see

:*[[Stations of the Royal Artillery in India]]
