India

India has a rich philatelic history. To date 28 different perfin dies on 1935 Silver Jubilee stamps have been identified. It is important to remember that in 1935, modern day Burma and Pakistan were part of India. Cancellations and company perfins located in these countries will be found on Indian Silver Jubilee issues.

The below table lists the known perfins. Examples of some of these can be viewed by clicking on those printed in blue.
