The relatively short wingspan, shape of the wings and single vertical stabilizer reveal this to actually be an image of a Short Stirling bomber. See three-view of the Short Stirling here for comparison: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/91/Short_Stirlin... Compare to the three-view of the Handley Page Halifax bomber: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bd/Handley_Page_...

Thank you very much for this information. The original photo had the mistaken information written on the back, but judging by the illustrations that you have provided I believe that you are correct. I will correct the description; thanks again!

It might be possible to identify the location from the hangars in this photo
and the B-17 behind looks like General Koenig's 'Bir Hackeim' ,the only French Air Force B-17 which passed through India en-route Indo-China around September 1945

I think the Stirling is at the very large American funded CBI support base at Dum Dum, Calcutta (Kolkata)....the distinctive hangar design shows up in this later photo of a USAF C-124 during the Korean war, 1953 upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/20/C-124_374TCW_...
