The deceased Rohitkumar worked as a mason specialized in fitting tiles.
He succumbed to his injuries after being admitted to RIMS Hospital.
Among the injured persons, the conditions of Surendra Das and Ranjan Mahatto are said to be critical.
According to one of the injured persons, six of them including the deceased Rohitkumar were having talks inside the rented room when a hand grenade rolled on the floor and exploded suddenly.
Some people said that the grenade could not be lobbed through the window as it was sealed.
However, the house lies close to the road and its main door was kept opened.
The grenade could have been lobbed by someone who knows about the house well, they claimed.
It may be recalled that some unidentified persons have earlier placed hand grenades in the same locality.
SP of Imphal West K Jayenta, SDPO Modhunimai and other police officials rushed to the spot to take stock of the incident.
