7.5cm Krupp export gun possibly an M03 or M09. It's a bit hard to be more specific but I'd guess it as a captured Turkish gun picked up in Mesopotamia although

you'd need the markings from the top of the breech and the breech ring to be sure. Some of the captured Turkish guns were distributed in

India after WW1. 

Any information about the gun's location?

Regards,

Charlie
