Kalthia's website lists 'Chiloda Sargasan NH 147 Gujarat' among its road projects, without value, dates or package number. The stretch corresponds geographically to six-laning Package IV (Ch. 35.43–44.42 km), but that link is an inference and is not stated on the page; whether Kalthia was main contractor or sub-contractor, and whether the work is finished, are also not stated.

Package length 9 km. A contract-award notice republished by tender aggregators (tender no. 11 of 2017-18, Package IV, km 35/480–44/420) names M.S.
