Hindi people’s old symbol (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

logo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'symbol' is the definition.
(logo is a kind of symbol)

'hindi people's old' is the wordplay.
'hindi people' becomes 'log' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'old' becomes 'o' (common abbreviation eg in OE for Old English).
'log'+'o'='LOGO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for logo that I've seen before include "Symbolic design" , "Printed symbol as organisation's emblem" , "Corporate symbol" , "Emblematic design" , "A company's printed symbol or emblem" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
