Karan/Shanx - Yes, the MPS in the BRC-ADI section is 110kmph.
Karan, the MPS here was recently (in the last 8-10 months) raised to 110. Also, those two dips before Surat and BRC were not speed restrictions, but unscheduled halts.
Dhiraj, to generate such graphs, you need a GPS device (either standalone or in a cellphone) and a software that records data.

@Shanx => No, it's even lower! I remember seeing in WTT long back that Shatabdi is restricted to 90/100 (don't remember exactly) in BRC-ADI stretch.

Is the MPS on BRC-ADI section limited to 110?

@Trayambak
All GPS devices have certain inherent error in recorded speed. Do not take all figures at face value. Chances are almost nil that the LP would take the BPL Shatabdi above 150, leave aside going above 160!

For a distance of 7 kms, approx from 167 to 174 the train seemed to have just crawled at less than 5 kmph!!! Or is the scale skewed?

Awesome...It actually crosses 160 before Mathura near Vrindavan...No wonder this train is an absolute showpiece for India

Big Speed Restrictions 7km before Surat and 6km before BRC?

Even when I travelled by 2002 a few months back, I had experienced a long spirited 150km/hr run around Vrindavan Road and another after MTJ, similar to the one seen here!

Great effort. Hats off to your patience! Illustration with multiple colors makes it more descriptive and easy to grasp.
