What is a IGC badge

My Great Uncle Frank Bennett was serving with the 1/4 Buffs in India 29-10-14 until 01-10-16 and according to his service record on the 09-09-16 he was granted the IGC badge. Does anybody know what the IGC badge is?

I suspect that's not "IGC" but "1 GC", ie "one good conduct badge". These were essentially the same as rank chevrons, but worn point up on the lower left sleeve, and awarded to soldiers after set period of time who had accumulated the relevant "undetected crime" to their name.
