should lead to a rerating for the company.

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
major releases due to the Covid-19 crisis.However, with a
significant decrease in Covid-19 cases over the past few
months we believe that it’s a matter of time before we see
new releases by production houses post April 2021 which
should lead to significant increase in business for the
companies.
