You can use testdisk. It uses the back up of the NTFS partition table to
reconstruct the original partition. Apart from the overwritten data(and the
corresponding files) I guess everything else should be intact.

I am sure other than those 46 MB all data in sda1 should be intact. Is
there any way that to recover that data or is it possible to recover
overwritten ntfs partition.

You can try to repair from MFT
