Fire officials said that no one was injured in the incident but the company suffered extensive damages.
According to fire brigade officials, their control room got a call at about 2am that a fire had broken out in Vision Product Private Ltd near Mahuvad village. Two fire vans were sent to the spot while about six other fire vans from the companies nearby joined the efforts to douse the flames.

Panic spread in the areas around the company as smoke billowed from the plant and the fire could be seen from a distance too.
Employees of the company exited the plant safely.
