The ribons are:
MBE, British War Medal,1908 -1935 India General Service, 1936-1939 India General Service, 1939-1945 Star, Africa Star, Burma Star, War Medal 39-45, India Service Medal, and Army Long Service & Good Conduct Medal.
Would appear he was originally an other rank who was eventually commissioned. Having only the BWM, and not the Victory Medal, he was perhaps serving in a Territorial Battalion in India during WWI, without seeing any action.
Buttons are King's crown, pre-1953, which makes sense for the period that the medal ribbons cover.
Could have been a quartermaster, or possibly a line officer; without a name, impossible to know.

Have you looked inside the inside pocket and under the chest pocket flaps for a named makers label?
Looks a good tunic. As Bob stated he must have only been in India in WWI to get just the war medal.
