Noida Supernova suicide: Techie had 15L alimony

On Saturday, a 28-year-old software engineer based in Gurgaon took his own life at Noida's Supernova building. His marriage had ended in separation a few months after the premature birth of their son, who required extended hospital care. The couple was ordered by the court to divide their assets, with the techie to pay his former wife Rs 15 lakh in alimony, split into two installments.

The techie had already paid Rs 7-8 lakh of this amount, with the remainder due the following month. In addition to alimony, the techie also carried a Rs 30 lakh loan taken to cover his son's medical expenses. The combination of these financial burdens appears to have left him under severe strain in the weeks leading up to his death.
