Investment Rationale
PVR is the largest multiplex chain in India with 800+ screens across India and multiplex screens are gaining ground at the expense of single screen. Share prices have corrected significantly as most of the theaters are operating at very low capacity utilization due to the lack of any major releases due to the Covid-19 crisis.However, with a significant decrease in Covid-19 cases over the past few months the brokerage believes that it’s a matter of time before it sees new releases by production houses post April 2021 which should lead to significant increase in business for the companies.
