The SN shows flash ionized signatures of C III/N III around 4700 Angstrom along with intermediate width H$\alpha$ and H$\beta$ emission signatures (FWHM ~ 1300 km/sec). The redshift estimated from the host galaxy lines of ZTF25aafofmu is 0.0637. NGSF (AstroNote 2022-191; Howell et al. 2005) also shows a best match with SN IIn/II-flash. The line width is narrower than typical TDEs and rise time is also quite fast at the given absolute magnitude which rules out the TDE scenario. 2025TNSCR.804....1G
