The NCC flag was initially adopted in 1951, mirroring the design and dimensions of Army regiment flags but with the addition of the NCC badge and unit designation at its center. In 1954, recognizing the NCC's inter-service nature, the current tricolor flag was introduced, with red symbolizing the Army, deep blue for the Navy, and light blue for the Air Force. The golden NCC letters and crest, encircled by a lotus wreath, contribute to the flag's vibrant appearance and unique identity.
