According to reports, the disaster cell of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), the fire originated on the ground floor of the Cintex City building.
As per civic officials, the fire was contained within 15 storage rooms on the ground floor, spanning an area of 2,000 sqft. As per the official statement, due to the presence of wooden materials, polish, and chemicals throughout the floor, the fire rapidly intensified and spread.
