Commissioning INS Satpura.

A special cover was released in Mumbai on August 20, 2011 on the occasion of Commissioning INS Satpura. It is the latest stealth frigate of Indian Navy, with pennant number F48, second ship of the Shivalik Class Frigates built by Mazagon Dock Limited, Mumbai.


The special postmark shows the Crest (design showing "Khandas" - Indian double-edge straight sword )  and motto (Resolve, Pride, Courage) and the cachet shows INS Satpura in action.
