As maintainance is free in night at coimbatore for LHB rake barring Uday being a small rake may be the reason to change this train to LHB while in Chennai they need to maintain Shatabdi and DD at night.

Anyway one pitline will be allotted for Kovai at BBQ be it ICF or LHB rake. So that cant be a reason for not giving LHB. BBQ handles more number of LHB trains like DD, 2 Shatabdis,Duronto,Navjeevan,MAQ SF,MDU Duronto.
