The authorities have yet to determine the source of the fire and assess the extent of the damage. However, sources informed that they quickly brought the fire under control and prevented significant damage.
The Logix Group, based in Noida, owns City Center, the sole retail space property. Inaugurated in 2016, the mall spans 25,000 sq meters. It gained attention three years later due to a water supply cutoff by the Noida Authority, owing to outstanding dues amounting to Rs 46 lakh.
Social media platforms are circulating videos of the fire, depicting thick smoke in the corridors of the mall. According to a report the fire likely started due to a short circuit. However, a detailed investigation will uncover the exact cause of the blaze.
