The 10th Indian Motor Brigade was a formation of the Indian Army during World War II. It was formed in Egypt in March 1942. The brigade left Egypt for Persia in September 1942 and was converted to the 60th Indian Infantry Brigade in July 1943.[1]

During its time active the brigade was under the command of three different higher formations, the 10th Armoured Division, the 51st Highland Division, and, from September 1942 to 1943, the Tenth Army.
