It is Arhopala major major.
1. The discal (middle) spot in space 7 is smaller than either of postdiscal spot 6 or 7. (The three are usually equally large in A. amphimuta.)
2. Postdiscal spot 2 (to the inside of the green metalmark) is a reverse 'L'. ( a 'V' with about equal arms in A. amphimuta.)
Have a look at C&P4 plate 40 pic 12 & 14 and Plate 66 pic 1 & 2.
