PVR INOX shares jump up to 6%; stock advances 13% in six months

Besides, the company on Saturday, December 14, announced the opening of 5 new screens at Inorbit Mall, Cyberabad, Hyderabad, transforming the cinema into an 11-screen superplex.

The Superplex features 3 premium formats — Luxe, PXL, and 4DX. These, along with the mainstream screens, come together to create an 11-screen setup that offers clear visuals, steady sound, and comfort suited to families, young audiences, and working professionals.

PXL, the first in Telangana, features a 55-foot-wide screen, RGB laser projection, Dolby Atmos sound, and recliner seating. The 4DX screen, now the third in the city, brings motion seats and effects such as wind, fog, scent, water, and snow, adding to the viewing experience in Hyderabad. These formats are part of the five newly added screens that join the existing six to form the 11-screen Superplex.

With this launch, PVR INOX now operates the largest multiplex network, with 1772 screens across 355 properties in 111 cities (India and Sri Lanka).

Speaking on the launch, Ajay Bijli, Managing Director, PVR INOX Limited, said, "The Superplex at Inorbit Mall marks an important step for our presence in Hyderabad. With 11 screens and three premium formats, we aim to offer a wide range of viewing choices in one of the city’s most active entertainment hubs. Our focus is on large spaces that deliver comfort, clarity, and reliable technology for all guests."

Sanjeev Kumar Bijli, Executive Director, PVR INOX Limited, added, "This property reflects our approach to building cinemas that serve modern audiences. The mix of Luxe, PXL, 4DX, and mainstream screens gives Hyderabad viewers a strong choice in a single location. We are pleased to bring this Superplex to the city."

"With this launch, PVR INOX strengthens its presence in South India and adds a fresh landmark in Cyberabad. The Superplex brings scale, premium formats, thoughtful design, and warm hospitality for film lovers in the city," the press release added.

Upbeat response and footfalls

Another key reason behind the stock’s gains in today’s trade was the strong response to Aditya Dhar’s directorial Dhurandhar. The film has witnessed impressive footfalls and exceptional audience reception.

According to film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Dhurandhar overtook all other films on the second Saturday, setting a new benchmark. He noted that the film is now competing head-on with the biggest blockbusters in Hindi cinema.
