In March 1894, the first proof testing in India was carried out, with there being fired six inch (152 mm) Bag Loader Howitzers and 12 Pounder Shrapnel shells under the command of Captain R.H. Mahon. He recommended the creation of a dedicated department for this purpose. The Proof Department in India was sanctioned in May 1895.〔(History of PXE )〕 It was established on November 7, 1895 with Headquarters at Balasore and Lt. R.T. Moorre as the head. Later, the establishment was renamed to the Proof & Experimental Department, and later still was renamed as PXE. The establishment was organised under the Director General of Ordnance (DGO), India and subsequently came under the supervision of the Inspection Organisation under the DGO. After Independence, PXE was under the administrative control of DGI up to 1958. On July 15, 1947, Lt. Col. B.N. Mitra became the first Indian to head the organisation. The establishment was brought under the administrative control of DRDO in October 1958.
