According to the reports, the fire began in an electrical wiring duct inside a room and later spread to other parts of the apartment. The deceased was identified as Bhavna Satra, 63. A 34-year-old woman, identified as Aneree, was also in the flat at the time of the incident and suffered injuries.

Both women reportedly inhaled heavy smoke, which caused breathing problems. They were taken to Nanavati Hospital, where Satra was declared dead. Aneree is undergoing treatment.

The flat was located on the top floor, which made the operation difficult as the corridor and staircases were filled with smoke. By the time firefighters rescued the women, both were unconscious.
