The incident took place around 2 am in the company located on Pokhran Road number-2, a civic official told PTI, adding that nobody was injured.
"The blaze erupted in the company office, a ground plus one-storey structure. Its upper portion caught fire, in which the furniture, documents and other things got destroyed," Avinash Sawant, chief of the Regional Disaster Management Cell (RDMC) of Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC), told PTI.
Soon after being alerted, a team of local fire brigade and RDMC personnel rushed to the spot. It took them 3.30 hours to extinguish the flames, he said, adding that the cooling operation was underway.
The cause of the fire is being probed, Sawant said.
