Indian Spot-Billed Duck?

Indian Spot-Billed Duck? August 1, 2016. I know this is Anas poecilorhyncha, but is this A. p. poecilorhyncha?
 
The red band on the bill rules-out Anas p. zonorhyncha but the difference between Anas p. poecilorhyncha and A. p. haringtoni seems to be only that A. p. haringtoni seems to be a little smaller so from this photo I'm afraid it can't be seen.
 
Looking at ztl haringtoni isn't kept in European collections, though, and haven't been since 1999.
