Organisation

The corps has two of the army's Reorganised Army Plains Infantry Divisions (RAPIDs).

It consists of:

Formation Sign

At the time of re-raising, 10 corps adopted the present divisional formation sign. The formation sign was designed by its first General Officer Commanding (GOC) - Lieutenant General ML Tuli. The design consists of the 'red-white-red background' depicting a corps of the Indian Army and a horse with the torso of a man.

Chetak, traditionally the horse ridden by Maharana Pratap at the Battle of Haldighati is associated with Rajput chivalry and is symbolic of mobility and manoeuvre. Th horse is poised in a bid to spring into action, which symbolises optimum readiness. The torso of a soldier is depicted in a power packed stance launching a spear at the enemy - which symbolises instant alertness for aggressive action to face any challenge.[8]
