The
unit was not operational and was undergoing a dismantling
process, Tata, India's largest steelmaker by revenue, said in a
statement, adding that production has not been impacted.
Tata did not say what had caused the blast but some local media

pipeline at a battery site and led to a massive fire.
"An investigation to assess the cause is underway," Tata said.
Two of the workers were discharged after receiving first aid and
one has been kept under medical observation.
