A few days later, Gupta's 12-year-old daughter found a suicide note in her notebook and informed her mother. The letter revealed that he had taken this drastic step due to a property dispute with a couple. He had a room in Nalasopara, which was to be acquired for metro construction. He received a significant payment from the metro authorities. Meanwhile, the couple frequently claimed that they were the rightful owners of the room and repeatedly demanded money from Gupta. In the note, he mentioned that the couple’s continuous demands had driven him to suicide.
Following this, Gupta's wife approached the railway police. On October 1, the police registered a case against the couple and two unidentified individuals who allegedly troubled Gupta on behalf of the couple under Sections 108 (abetment of suicide) and 3(5) (general explanation) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
