A massive fire broke out Sunday in a multi-storied building in Indian capital city New Delhi, officials said.
However, no loss of life or injury to any person was reported so far in the inferno.
The fire broke out during evening at Netaji Subhash Place in West Delhi.
According to officials, more than 25 fire tenders were rushed to the spot to douse the flames and contain it from spreading.
Reports said the fire broke out in a office building's generator compartment.
The security guards posted in the building saw smoke billowing from the tenth floor of the building and raised an alarm, locals said.
"Soon after we received a call about fire, we dispatched over two dozen fire tenders to douse the fire," a fire department official said. "There are no reports of any casualty and fire has been completely doused."
The official said the firefighters were still monitoring the situation.
The multi-storied building houses many offices, which were closed in wake of the Sunday being a public holiday.
Police officials have registered a case and initiated investigations to ascertain the cause of fire.
