On 25 March 2017, ITD-ITD Cementation JV was selected as the lowest bidder for this stretch, with their bid closely aligning with the original cost estimates.^[4] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements.
