On the fateful day last week, Vishala had told her parents that she would visit their apartment in Brahmavar and return after finishing some work at a bank.
The incident had come to light when her father went to check the apartment after his daughter did not return home.
It is suspected that the murder took place over a financial matter.
Police have taken the CCTV footage into custody. Her gold ornaments and cash were found missing from the apartment.
