Thanks Ben for the response. I know this is a bit late and I am sorry for that.
The issue was somewhere else. tcpdump nailed it. It was hard to simulate and when it happened, tcpdump suggested that the packet did reach the other end of the socket. There was nothing special about the code. It was socket.write(). Other socket related code was scattered all around so I did not know what to add here. However, it is solved now. There is no issue at node. Thanks once again.
