In this paper, we study a singular solution to the following elliptic equations: \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} - \Delta u + |x|^{2}u - \lambda u - |u|^{p-1}u = 0, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^{d}, & \\ u(x) > 0, \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^{d}, & \\ u(x) \to 0 \quad \text{as}\; |x| \to \infty, & \end{array}\right. \end{equation*} where $d \geq 3, \lambda >0$ and $p > 1$. In the spirit of Merle and Peletier [9], we shall show that in case of $p>(d+2)/(d-2)$, there is a unique value $\lambda = \lambda_{*}$ such that the equation with $\lambda = \lambda_{*}$ has a unique radial singular solution.
