The '''115th Indian Infantry Brigade''' is an infantry formation of the [[Indian Army]].
It was initially formed during World War II, in September 1943, as a training brigade of the [[39th Indian Infantry Division]].<ref>{{cite web|accessdate=2009-10-19|publisher=Order of Battle|title=115 Brigade|url=http://www.ordersofbattle.com/UnitData.aspx?UniX=63267&Tab=Uhi|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120225212039/http://www.ordersofbattle.com/UnitData.aspx?UniX=63267&Tab=Uhi|url-status=dead|archive-date=25 February 2012}}</ref>

Its composition included the 14th Gurkha Rifles Training Battalion, the 38th Gurkha Rifles Training Battalion, the 56th Gurkha Rifles Training Battalion, and the 710th Gurkha Rifles Training Battalion.<ref>{{cite web|accessdate=2009-10-19|publisher=Order of Battle|title=115 Infantry Brigade Subordanates|url=http://www.ordersofbattle.com/UnitData.aspx?UniX=63267&Tab=Sub|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120225212041/http://www.ordersofbattle.com/UnitData.aspx?UniX=63267&Tab=Sub|url-status=dead|archive-date=25 February 2012}}</ref>

In 1971 it was part of the 36th Division. In the late 1980s the brigade took part in the [[Indian Peace Keeping Force]] in [[Sri Lanka]]. As of 2001, the brigade, as part of the reformed 36th Division, a Reorganised Army Plains Infantry Division (RAPID), was located at [[Dhana]].<ref>Mandeep Bajwa and Ravi Rikhye, [http://orbat.com/site/toe/toe/india/rapids.html Indian Army RAPID Divisions] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101128012736/http://orbat.com/site/toe/toe/india/rapids.html |date=2010-11-28 }}, February 11, 2001</ref>
