A police team probing the crash is examining the CCTV footage for further leads, the official said on Monday.
Another police officer said the person behind the wheel had covered a distance of 20 km in just nine minutes, meaning the luxury car was being driven at a speed of 180-190 km per hour.
The car was being driven by Mumbai-based gynaecologist, Anahita Pandole (55), a family friend of Mistry, police have said.
She and her husband, Darius Pandole (60) were seriously injured in the accident and are undergoing treatment in a Mumbai hospital.
The probe team will submit a detailed report that will be forwarded to Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who has ordered an investigation into the road accident, the official said.
Mistry's funeral will be held at the Worli crematorium in Mumbai at 11 am on Tuesday.
