Are you sure thats the upgraded Baaz bro? Its lacking the Hump on the spine!

Indeed but this is just the trainer variant so maybe doesn't need the extended range. You can see the retractable IFR probe so it is for sure upgraded.
 
What's the reason that they paint the Indian flag horizontally inverted?

First of all that is not an Indian Flag. Its called a "FinFlash" it just happens to have the colors of the Indian Tricolor.
On the other side of the Tail-Fin the same colors appear, but the Green Band will appear on the leading edge, in reverse of what you see here.
Just as the "Roundel" on the nose also uses the colors of the Indian Tricolor.

"A fin flash is part of the national markings of the military aircraft of a number of countries."
Most of countries use their own country's flag as fin flash but India is unique in the sense that it uses a deranged flag of its country!

Observe the fin flash of all countries. They all represent the flag in the original way.

Dude this is the way that the IAF has designed and used this FinFlash since 1947.
If you don't like it, you can write to the CAS. Or file a PIL in the SC!
But remember that it is not a National Flag, just a unique Military Marking.

Images shown below are as they appear on the left side of the aircraft (i.e. with the left side of the fin flash leading) - in cases where there are no asymmetrical details such as coats of arms or text that cannot be reversed, the image may be reversed for the right side, such as with the Royal Air Force fin flash to keep the same side forward much as with a flag. When a national flag is used, the left side of the aircraft is often the back side of the flag as it is normally flown. Exceptions include the pre-World War II German Third Reich's ostensibly "civilian" aircraft, which used a tricolor set of red-white-black horizontal stripes on the right side of the fin and rudder and the swastika in black, in a white circular field on a red band on the left side of the vertical tail surfaces, in the manner of the Nazi Party flag.
 

@acetophenol:
I know that, which is why I explained it to him. Just as it may incorporate the National Colors, without in any way being a Facsimile of the flag itself.
Just check the colors of the RAF's Roundel.
 
An Mi-17 in the rescue op has got its armour and countermeasures on!
Of course, it is a military helo after all it is just undertaking rescue missions in this instance the IAF won't remove such protection measures.
