According to preliminary information, the train was undergoing signaling trials when the incident occurred and some damage occurred.

Officials had earlier said that due to repeated technical issues, monorail passenger services in Mumbai were suspended from September 20 until further notice for system upgrade works.

The Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) had set up a committee to conduct a detailed inquiry into the technical glitches that have affected monorail services multiple times in the recent past, including the glitches that left hundreds of passengers stranded at different points in two monorail trains on September 15 and August 19.
