A massive fire broke out at a Dalda factory warehouse in Patna, Bihar, on June 29, 2026 [1].
The incident has caused significant disruption in the Fatuha area, with reports indicating that goods worth crores of rupees may have been destroyed. The scale of the blaze required a large-scale response from emergency services to prevent the fire from spreading to adjacent structures.
The fire occurred on Mahuli Road within the Fatuha Assembly constituency of the Patna district [1]. While some reports state the fire broke out on Monday, June 29 [1], other accounts indicate the blaze began late Sunday night and continued into Monday morning [2]. The site is located within the limits of the Didarganj police station [2].
Firefighting teams rushed to the spot to battle the flames. Emergency crews worked to contain the fire as it engulfed the warehouse facility. The intensity of the blaze made initial containment efforts difficult, though operations remained underway throughout the morning.
Officials have not yet determined the cause of the fire [3]. Investigators are expected to survey the site once the area is cooled and secured to identify the origin of the spark. No immediate casualties were reported in the initial bulletins, though the financial loss is expected to be substantial due to the volume of stored goods [2].
Local authorities have managed traffic and crowds around Mahuli Road to ensure that fire tenders and emergency vehicles could access the facility without delay. The warehouse served as a critical storage point for the Dalda brand in the region.
