Six fire engines from the Mumbai Fire Brigade were rushed to the scene to contain the fire. Emergency teams worked quickly to prevent the flames from spreading to adjoining units in the commercial complex. Fortunately, there were no reports of injuries or casualties. The shop, however, suffered major damage due to the intensity of the fire.

Preliminary observations suggest that the fire spread rapidly due to the presence of large quantities of wood and flammable materials stored inside the unit. However, the exact cause of the fire has not been determined yet, and an official investigation is currently underway.
