Tulwar Armory stamp?

First off, I would like to say what a great forum this is, I have learned so much going through the past threads. Hopefully, someone may be able to tell me if the mark on the forte shown in the picture is a armory mark or makers mark? It seems very deep, so It would lead me to believe that it was made at the time of manufacture. Is it Urdu by any chance? What is the translation? The eyelash markings appear to me to have two suns, possibly a Hindi solar deity sūrya reference. Thoughts?

Kind regards
