Lambert Conical Orthomorphic is the British term for
Lambert Conformal Conic. The Brits introduced it in the
Survey of India in the early 1900's. Captain Martin Hotine
was the Geodesist that did it - he was one of the "Giants
of Geodesy." There are numberous secant zones (2 standard
parallels). India is a BIG place. Exactly what are the
limits of Latitude and Longitude of the map you have in
hand?
