Following the mishap, structural engineers from the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) visited the site to assess the damage. Preliminary findings suggest that the parking structure had weakened, and further investigation is underway to determine the exact cause.

A section of residents has called for a structural audit of all buildings in the society, citing safety concerns. In response, the society management has issued a statement pledging full cooperation with the authorities, and confirming plans to conduct a thorough structural assessment and undertake urgent repairs.
