High speed Interceptor to Kill warhead 140 KM above the earth.

Agreed - I don't think PDV has KKV. All the PAD tests till now had explosive warheads, and they wouldn't want to add to the challenge of exo-atmospheric interception by including KKV as well.

Than What does this mean?

Describing it as a “big challenge,” they said the interceptor’s “kill vehicle,” equipped with a dual seeker, would attack the payload (warhead portion) as it descends towards its intended target. The advantage of intercepting an incoming missile at such a high altitude was that the debris would not fall on the ground and there would be no collateral damage.
