This post is higher(5 star rank) than Admiral(4 star). It is equal to post of field marshal (Army) or marshal of air force. There had never been an admiral of fleet in India. But Sam Manekshaw was honored with field marshal and Arjan singh with marshal of air force. These were only two times when this 5 star rank was honored in Independent India

Admiral is a navy rank, not Army. Looking on Wikipedia, it lists a General Deepak Kapoor as the Chief of Staff of the Indian Army, and an Admiral Nirmil Kumar Verma as the Chief of Naval Staff of the Indian Navy.
