Fujiyama Power Systems Haryana Plant Fire: Operations Under Review
A fire incident occurred at Fujiyama Power Systems Ltd's manufacturing facility in Bawal, Haryana, on the evening of May 6, 2026. The blaze, which has been largely brought under control with the help of the local fire department, did not result in any reported fatalities or serious injuries. All personnel present at the plant were safely evacuated.
The company is currently investigating the exact cause of the fire and assessing the full extent of the damage to its assets. Fujiyama Power Systems stated that the affected assets are adequately insured, and steps are underway to minimize operational disruption and ensure business continuity.
Fujiyama Power Systems operates under brands such as UTL Solar, serving India's rooftop solar and power backup market. Its product range includes solar panels, inverters, batteries, and UPS systems. The Bawal plant in Haryana is specifically identified as a Solar Tubular Battery Plant. The company recently underwent an IPO in November 2025 and has reported strong financial performance, including robust Q3 FY26 results earlier in 2026.
This incident follows a previous event in March 2026, when the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) initiated a search and seizure at its Noida facility, though the company reported no material impact from that action.
The fire's impact on production and supply chains is a key concern for investors. While insurance coverage is in place, the full extent of operational disruption and the timeline for restoring manufacturing capacity at the Bawal facility remain critical factors to monitor. Shareholder confidence may be tested as the company navigates these challenges and processes insurance claims. Production schedules could face temporary adjustments.
Fujiyama Power Systems competes in the electrical goods and solar energy sector with established players like Havells India, Luminous Power Technologies, and Exide Industries, who also offer similar power backup and solar solutions.
