100+200= 300 or 15 Regiments.

Each Regt has 20 Guns(18 are used and rest 2 are kept as Reserve)

Assuming 2 Regts in this (usually it's 3) would form 1 Brigade. 2 Brig would form 1 Division, we would have 3.5 Div. or 7 Brig.

Can safely assume that atleast 1 Div. or 2 Brigades would be part of Each 3 Theatre & 1 reserve.

Correct me if I am wrong anywhere
Mobile arty assets are not divided in divisions in the army .

A good scenario for allocating K9 vajra would be
Giving all RAPID divisions one regiment worth of K9

Most of the arty assets that chinese have brought in at chushul amd depsang are truck mounted howitzers . Two K9 regiments in chushul and one regiment of K9 in Depsang will be a perfect response and a good counter to any chinese armored thrust
You have mentioned that China has bought in truck mounted Artillery/howitzers at Depsang and Chushul , my question here is: are these the PCL-181 truck-mounted 155 mm self-propelled howitzers ?
