Revenue & Sales Performance

  • Expectation of strong content pipeline in 2026 across Hindi (e.g., Dhurandhar 2, King, Ramayana Part 1), regional (e.g., Toxic, Peddi), and Hollywood films (e.g., Avengers Doomsday, Dune 3), driving footfall and revenue growth.

  • Calendar 2025 saw 9% YoY growth in footfalls (40.5 million guests in Q3) and occupancy improvement to ~28.5%, with upward trajectory expected due to strong film slates.
  • Average ticket price and F&B spend per head increased by 4% YoY, signaling stable consumer spend.
  • Addition of new screens (20 in the recent quarter, 62 YTD with nearly 100 expected in FY 2026) supports expansion and volume growth.
  • Focus on capital-light and FOCO models enables scalable growth with healthy free cash flows.
