Assessment rationale/justification
Resticted in range in India in 33 locations and 15 subpopulations. Habitat and populations suffer from severe human-induced threats which have resulted in only very few mature individuals estimated currently. Restricted numbers indicate that the taxon is Endangered. Since nothing is known of the neighbouring Myanmar population, the assessment is retained as Endangered for South Asia.

Assessment rationale/justification
Fairly wide range but restricted area for this golden langur with 32 locations and 7 subpopulations severely fragmented. Severe threats from humans is causing continuing decline in area, extent and quality of habitat. Hunting and encroachments have resulted in decreasing mature individuals and locations or subpopulations, which make the taxon Endangered due to restricted area and low population numbers that are continuously declining.
