I would agree with subspecies exoticus now, sorry for the confusion.

Thank you for the information Ornithoptera80! Subspecies are something that always confused me :)

Ornithoptera80, is there a notable difference between sub-species in butterflies? Asking for my knowledge...

Look at the small 'V' shape in the hindwing. Glassy tiger doesn't have that. Check this, https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/262893971.
