It does look correct as Hasora chromus.

Hasora species can be very difficult.The width of the white band is vcariable.
The irregular band is similar to H. taminatus bhavara but the flash will show the blue grey sheen.

H. proxissima & khoda have solid white bands.

H. vitta have a fairly solid band , the inner margin is regularly even & curved.

H. chromus have an irregularly -margined band, usually narrow.
