Army officers and soldiers always salute with open paw and right hand. During the salutation, all their fingers are open forward and the thumb is joined together. This is a way of showing respect to superiors and subordinates. Along with this he also states that there is no weapon in his hand.

Indian Navy

During the Indian Navy salute the palm is placed on the head in such a way that an angle of 90 degrees is formed between the palm and the ground. The reason behind this salute is to hide the dirty palms of sailors and soldiers working in the navy. While working on the ship many times the hands of seamen get dirty with grease and oil.

The Indian Air Force introduced a new form of salute in the year 2006 for all its soldiers and officers. Earlier Air Force's salute system was similar to that of the Army.
