Reason:
1. Other Exp in between VDA-BRC dont have any stoppage while this train do have 2 stoppage, adding more run time
2. This train gets overtaken in between VDA-BRC by SBC/YPR/MYS bound train, on different days, adding to more run time!!
PS: ADI-VDA run is quite in sync, with both 3 express taking nearby same time with same set of stoppages (while this

train takes 11 mins less than Saurashtra & 1 min more than Guj Queen)!!

JBP-NGP is quite a semi circular route, with ET as the midway of this semi circle, while Bus ply in direct route!!
This simply isnt comparable to direct Road-Route or other direct Rail-Route!!

saurashtra exp takes far lesser time than ICE... secondly 2 stoppages are not shown in official indian railway site... dey are just meant for overtaking for SBC bound trains...

In any case, the reason for time taken has been defined coz of overtake in between Vasad & BRC!!
Further, kindly note, ADI-VDA run comparison has been defined, where-in equal number of stoppages even have lead Intercity to be 11 minutes faster!!
PS: When station stoppage isnt fixed (either technical), then y its been displayed @ IRI, as passenger who check schedule @ IRI, may feel cheated if train stop only @ one station (or if trailing train gets delayed, no stoppage in between VDA-BRC)!!
