The British were victorious and gained control of Nagar and its forts (Nilt Fort, Mayun Fort, and Thole Fort) after continuous fighting lasting over 20 days.<ref>{{cite book \|last1=Syed Yahya \|first1=Shah \|title=Broshaal Ke Qabail \|publisher=North News Agency \|location=Gilgit}}</ref> More than 100 people from Nagar lost their lives with another 127 imprisoned.

			On December 2, the British captured Nilt Fort but were unable to seize the Mayun Fort. Durand was injured in this engagement. One of Nagar's commanders Mohammad Shah Wazir was killed on the same day.

			On December 23, the final fort fell to British hands.

			Azur Khan fled during the battle to [[Xinjiang\|Chinese Turkestan]] where he was later apprehended by the Chinese and turned over to the British. He was imprisoned in [[Srinagar]] and was later placed in house arrest.

			The battle, as well as the Hunza-Nagar Campaign, were part of attempts by the [[British Empire]] to check the expansion and influences of the [[Russian Empire]] and, to a lesser extent, the [[Qing dynasty\|Qing Empire]] in [[Central Asia]].
