  • 3) Payment of Variable compensation is determined by the NRC at the end of the financial year basis the laid-out performance criteria.

Variable remuneration payable to the MD and the ED is performance-linked and determined annually by the NRC based on pre-approved performance parameters.

The NRC applied this framework and undertook a holistic year-end evaluation based on financial outcomes and operational performance relative to industry-wide performance and progress against strategic and qualitative priorities. Based on this evaluation, the NRC was satisfied with the overall performance and accordingly recommended payment of the variable remuneration.

For FY 2023–24

The performance parameters set by the NRC for the year were (i) revenue and EBITDA (upto 33.3% weightage), (ii) merger integration synergies and cash flow management (upto 33.3% weightage), (iii) Customer satisfaction, Organisation development and other qualitative measures (upto 33.4% weightage).

FY 2023–24 represented the first full year following the merger of PVR Limited and INOX Leisure Limited and was therefore a critical year from the perspective of integration, stabilisation and value realisation.

  • (i) Revenue and EBITDA performance:

Given the cinema exhibition business is influenced by factors outside the direct control of management such as content supply and audience response, the NRC evaluates performance in the context of prevailing industry conditions and occupancy levels. Therefore, the NRC considered EBITDA % to be a consolidated measure of performance.

EBITDA margins typically vary meaningfully across different occupancy bands due to fixed-cost structure of the business. NRC had set EBITDA margin percentage goal to be in the range of 2%–8% at 22%–24% occupancy, 8%–14% at 24%–26% occupancy, 14%–17% at 26%–28% occupancy, and greater than 17% at occupancy level more than 28%; at prevailing cost structures.

During FY 2023-24, the merged Company witnessed an occupancy of 25.6% and achieved an EBITDA margin of 13% which was aligned on the higher end of the target range expected at such occupancy levels.

  • (ii) Merger integration synergies and cash flow management:

Against the target EBITDA synergies of ~2,250 million over 12–24 months, the Company achieved synergies of ~1,850–2,080 million

13

==> picture [88 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

(80%–90%) by the end of FY 2023–24, ahead of timelines.

The NRC reviewed performance against the target of generating positive free cash flows and reducing net debt levels, and noted that the Company generated a significant positive free cash flow of 1,158 million and reduced net debt from14,304 million to `12,940 million, reflecting disciplined capital deployment, synergyled cost optimisation and effective working capital management. The credit rating was upgraded by CRISIL to ‘AA’ with stable outlook.

  • (iii) Customer satisfaction, Organisation development and other qualitative measures

Focused initiatives were undertaken on organisational integration and development. A unified leadership structure and common operating framework were implemented across the merged entity, redundancies were eliminated, and processes and systems were aligned. Customer experience indicators improved during the year, supported by structured training programs, service quality initiatives and enhanced monitoring mechanisms across cinemas.

  • a) Organisation structure of merged company:

  • Management teams of both PVR and INOX were successfully integrated for smooth functioning of the merged entity.

  • Operational efficiency was brought in through leaner structure, streamlining operations, eliminating redundancies, and optimizing resources resulting in Cost savings of ` 140 million.

    • In addition, total headcount in FY’24 was lower by ~12% from pre-covid level (FY’20). On a per screen basis, this represents a ~27% reduction.
  • HRIS Integration: Integrated 2 platforms into a single Human Resource Information System (HRIS) for centralized employee database, streamlined HR processes, and seamless collaboration across the merged entity resulting in cost savings of ` 10 million per annum.

  • b) Customer satisfaction:

  • Over FY’2023-24 the number of complaints per thousand customers has significantly reduced by more than 60%.

  • Handled ~20 lakh user queries / issues (across calls, social media, emails, whatsapp), with 70-80% resolved via CRM.

  • Total 1200+ mystery audits were conducted in FY’24 where 90%+ touch point satisfaction score was achieved for Lobby, employee standards, Audi, Exit and Washrooms.

Based on the above, the NRC and the Board approved payment of the variable remuneration to the MD and the ED for FY 2023-2024.

For FY 2024–25

FY 2024–25 was marked by significant content headwinds and industry volatility. Hollywood admissions were expected to be impacted materially following the after-effects of the 2023 writers’ strike and a reduced release slate. Original Hindi film releases were also expected to be fewer with absence of major tentpole titles.

In this environment, the NRC expected the leadership’s emphasis on resilience, cost discipline and long-term sustainability.

  • (i) Revenue and EBITDA performance:

The NRC evaluated the Company’s operating performance in the context of occupancy levels and prevailing conditions. At occupancy of ~23% in FY 2024-25, the Company achieved an EBITDA margin of ~8%, which was considered resilient and towards the higher end of margins at comparable occupancy levels.

Performance was supported by:

  • a) Demand-generation initiatives: Pricing interventions and focus on alternative content resulted in 75 lacs incremental admissions representing 5.4% of total FY’25 admissions (71 lacs from re-releases alone) much higher than the past periods.

  • b) Stringent cost optimisation:

  • Achieved Rent and CAM cost reduction of ~` 567 million.

  • Portfolio optimisation: Against the goal of exiting 70 loss making screens, the company exited 72 loss making screens resulting in annual EBITDA savings of ~` 78 million.

  • Reduction in other overheads (excluding Rent & CAM): Company achieved reduction by 0.4% or ` 66 million in FY 2024-25 over FY 2023-24 when the CPI inflation index had increased by 3-4% during the same period.

  • (ii) Debt reduction and cash flow management:

The NRC reviewed performance against the objective of generating positive free cash flows and reducing net debt levels, and noted that the Company achieved net debt reduction from 12,940 million as of March 31, 2024 to 9,522 million as of March 31, 2025, representing a reduction of 3,418 million during the year and about 4,782 million since the merger. This was achieved by:

  • a) Capex Reduction: Against the target of reducing capex by 25% year on year in FY 2024-25, the Company achieved a reduction of 47% in capex from 6,269 million in FY 2023-24 to 3,249 million in FY 2024-25. This was supported by transition towards capital light growth model and reducing capex intensity.

  • b) Optimising working capital.

Despite the challenging operating environment, the Company maintained its CRISIL ‘AA’ credit rating with a stable outlook.

  • (iii) Customer satisfaction, Organisation development and other qualitative measures

The NRC reviewed leadership effectiveness in maintaining customer engagement, operational consistency, and people capability during a period of industry volatility, including the following key areas:

  • Organization & leadership: Unified organizational structure with removal of the legacy India A/B model, redefinition of KRAs for 15,000+ employees, and smooth transition to a new CFO and Company Secretary with no operational disruption.

  • People capability & engagement: Structured training and leadership development programs delivered across the network, achieving monthly training coverage of 9,500+ employees. An employee engagement survey covering 11,580 employees achieved an 86% satisfaction score with an 87% response rate.

  • Customer satisfaction & service quality: CRM handled approximately 1.6 million customer interactions. Following migration to WhatsApp, CSAT scores improved from 3.65 to 3.87, and response rates increased from 0.9% to 5%.

  • Operational quality &controls: Conducted over 1,100 internal audits with an average score of 93.6% and more than 1,200 mystery audits with an average score of 90%, reflecting consistent service standards across the network.

  • Digital enablement & productivity: The rollout of digital tools and automation (HRMS, Pulse app, Movie Jockey chatbot) improved operational efficiency, leading to an approximate 70% reduction in live chat volumes and process cost savings.

  • Based on this evaluation, the NRC and the Board approved payment of the variable remuneration to the MD and the ED for FY 2024-2025.

==> picture [88 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

  • Unmatched Scale & Premium Leadership in India’s Prime Consumption Markets:

Under the visionary leadership of Mr. Ajay Kumar Bijli and Mr. Sanjeev Kumar, PVR INOX Limited has emerged as India’s largest and one of the world’s leading multiplex operators. As on date, the Company operates 1,791 screens across 358 cinemas in 112 cities, making it the 4[th] largest listed multiplex operator globally.

It also ranks No.1 in the world on admissions per screen, delivering 2x–4x higher admissions per screen than large global peers such as AMC Cinemas (USA), Cinemark (USA), Cineplex (Canada), Kinepolis (Belgium), and Major Cinemas (Thailand). In India, the Company enjoys a commanding leadership position, being nearly four times larger than its nearest competitor in terms of screens, seats and annual admissions. The Company also reports the highest Average Ticket Price and the highest Food & Beverage revenue per head in the domestic exhibition industry, reflecting strong brand equity and superior monetisation capabilities.

Alongside scale, the leadership has driven a focused premiumization strategy. The Company currently operates 285 premium and special-format screens including Luxe, Director’s Cut, Insignia, IMAX, 4DX, PXL among others, which account for 16% of the total screen portfolio. Since FY’24, 286 new screens have been added, of which 26% are premium and special formats, underscoring the Company’s strategic shift towards high-yield formats. Further, 1,416 screens (79%) are located in Metros and Tier 1 cities, firmly positioning the Company within India’s most affluent and high-consumption urban markets.

• Transformational Merger Integration and Synergy Realisation:

The merger of PVR and INOX represents one of the most successful large-scale integrations in the Indian consumer and media sector, creating the country’s largest and most efficient multiplex platform. At the time of the merger, the Company had estimated annual EBITDA level synergies of ` 2,250 million of this, approximately 80-90% was realised within FY’24, within a year after the merger—well ahead of integration timelines for transactions of this scale and complexity.

Revenue Synergies: Significant amount of synergies were driven by revenue enhancement initiatives, with the balance delivered through sustainable structural cost efficiencies. On the revenue side, the leadership team executed a series of integration-led initiatives, including optimised film programming across the combined circuit, migration to a unified box office and consumer technology platform, dynamic pricing for high-demand content, and analytics-driven consumer engagement and promotions. In Food & Beverage, the integration enabled menu rationalisation and upgrades, broader product offerings across formats (for example, introducing non-vegetarian offerings at INOX locations) and the rollout of scalable, highmargin offerings across the network, resulting in a meaningful uplift in spend per head.

Cost Synergies: On the cost side, the Company leveraged economies of scale to renegotiate vendor contracts, consolidate procurement with common suppliers, standardise products, packaging and SOPs across the network and implement efficient manpower planning. In addition, based on the recommendations of a leading global HR consultancy, a new management structure was streamlined and appointed under the leadership of Managing Director and the Executive Director.

Beyond financial synergies, the integration has been comprehensive—spanning cultural alignment, operational harmonisation and strategic integration— embedding best practices from both legacy organisations and establishing a unified, scalable platform for future growth.

PVR INOX has decisively transitioned from a passive, content-dependent exhibition model to a more proactive strategy of “manufacturing footfalls”—where demand is systematically created through pricing innovation, alternate programming, experiential formats, and targeted customer segmentation. This strategic shift recognises that the post-pandemic consumer is more value-conscious, choice-driven and experience-led, requiring exhibitors to play a far more active role in driving cinema consumption.

Weekday Centric Consumer Offerings: A key pillar of this strategy has been the launch of Blockbuster Tuesdays, which has emerged as one of the most

16

PVR INOX LIMITED

effective weekday footfall drivers in the industry. In just six months, 3.6 million unique transactors have participated in Blockbuster Tuesdays, accounting for close to 12 million tickets booked ( 15% of all tickets booked in H1 FY’26 ), clearly demonstrating the programme’s success in reviving weekday cinema-going behaviour and expanding the active customer base.

Building on this momentum, the Company has rolled out a suite of consumer-centric weekday and F&B value propositions tailored to distinct demographics — Senior’s Day Monday for senior citizens, Wow Wednesdays for women, Thursday Specials for students, and Fun Fridays for younger audiences. These targeted initiatives are designed to create strong perceived value, improve weekday occupancies, and deepen engagement across diverse consumer segments, while maintaining overall yield discipline.

Alternate Programming: In parallel, PVR INOX has aggressively scaled alternate programming to supplement the traditional film slate. This includes successful theatrical re-releases, live IPL match / sports screenings, concerts, comedy shows, and curated content experiences. Re-releases contributed 71 lac or 5% admissions and other initiatives put together contributed 5 lac admissions in FY’25. These initiatives reinforce cinemas as multi-purpose entertainment destinations, extending utilisation beyond new movie releases.

  • Driving High-Margin Growth through F&B Premiumization, Introduction of owned Food Brands and Ecosystem Expansion:

Food & Beverage continues to be a core growth and profitability engine for PVR INOX, with the Company executing a multi-pronged strategy focused on premiumization, brand-building, access-led value, and expansion beyond the traditional cinema ecosystem.

Foodcourt JV: The Company has forayed into the food-court business through a Joint Venture with Devyani International. This marks PVR INOX’s entry into the pre-ticketed F&B segment, shifting from a model dependent on movie footfalls to a more stable, walk-in driven consumption business. As on date, three food courts are operational in Kota, Prayagraj and Leh, with further expansion planned for this business.

Launch of Owned food brands: The company has also entered the owned food brand space for the first time with the launch of ‘Dog Father’, a scalable hot-dog

brand, Frytopia, Cine-Café and other brands. Along with other in-house concepts, these brands are being incubated within the controlled cinema environment and have potential to expand outside the circuit over time, opening a new external brand-licensing and retail growth opportunity beyond theatres.

New Premium F&B format: The introduction of premium dining formats such as the “Dine-In” cinema in Bengaluru represents another step-change in F&B monetisation. By integrating freshly prepared multicuisine meals with in-seat service, lounge-style foyers, and curated zones, PVR INOX is repositioning the multiplex as a lifestyle and social destination, materially lifting both ticket and food realisations.

F&B Bundle: The Company has also launched ‘Bundle’ under which guests receive upto 50% additional F&B value when booking food along with tickets, materially improving food attachment rates, boosting Spend Per Head (SPH), and strengthening perceived consumer value without diluting margins.

Collectively, these initiatives on manufacturing footfalls and SPH expansion have delivered tangible outcomes— with 9M FY’26 recording the highest YTD 9 month admissions Average Ticket Price (ATP), and Spend Per Head (SPH) post-pandemic.

  • Relentless Cost Discipline Driving Structural Margin Resilience & Improvement in Return Metrics:

Cost optimization has been a core pillar of PVR INOX’s resilience strategy, executed with exceptional rigor both pre and post-merger. Between FY’20 and FY’25, despite a cumulative 29% increase in CPI, the Company has contained fixed cost growth to just 0.8% per annum on a per-screen basis, underscoring the strength of its structural cost controls.

Rent & CAM Savings: Rent and CAM renegotiations with developers, delivering savings of 567 million in FY’25 and 572 million in 9M FY’26, with cumulative post-merger savings of ` 1,668 million till 31[st] December, 2025.

Other Fixed Cost Savings: Fixed costs excluding Rent and CAM have in fact declined by 1.6% per annum per screen over this 5 year period. This has been enabled by a leaner organizational structure and optimized cinema staffing, resulting in employee cost per screen declining by ~2% per annum over these 5 years. Tight control over electricity consumption has kept power costs flat

17

==> picture [88 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

despite rising tariffs. The installation of rooftop solar power across many cinemas, has further strengthened energy efficiency. Additionally, stringent discipline over other overhead costs has driven a 1.6% per annum annual decline in these costs per screen.

Strategic Portfolio Rationalization: Complementing these measures, the Company has undertaken strategic portfolio rationalization, exiting structurally underperforming properties housed in ageing malls. Since FY 2023-24, while 286 new screens have been added, 168 loss-making screens were exited delivering annualized EBITDA savings of ` 252 million.

Together, these actions reflect a deeply embedded culture of cost discipline that materially strengthens margins, cash generation, Return on Capital employed and long-term financial sustainability.

• Impact of Merger Synergies is now apparent in Financials:

The tangible financial impact of the PVR–INOX merger, cost rationalization and revenue enhancement initiatives outlined above is now clearly reflected in the Company’s operating metrics and margins. It became especially evident in Q2 and Q3 of FY 2025-26, when business delivered ~18% EBITDA margins — comparable to pre-pandemic margins at an occupancy of 28%, nearly 400 basis points lower than pre-COVID levels. This milestone clearly underscores the structural strengthening of the Company’s profitability profile post-merger.

  • Strategic Shift to Scalable, Capital-Light Growth:

A defining strategic shift for the Company has been its pivot to a capital-light growth model, fundamentally reshaping the way it expands its screen network. This transition is centred on future-proofing the business through faster, more efficient, and lower-risk expansion by leveraging the Company’s scale, market leadership and strong brand equity. Under this model, the Company now partners with developers either through the Asset-Light structure, where 40–80% of the capex is funded by partners, or the FOCO model, where 100% of the capex is borne by the developer. As a result, capex intensity is expected to sharply reduce, significantly improving capital efficiency and returns.

As of 31[st] December 2025, the Company has signed 149 screens across 34 cinemas, comprising 95 screens under the Asset-Light model and 54 screens under FOCO, most of which are scheduled to

open over the next 12–18 months. In the current fiscal alone, 37 screens (18 under FOCO and 19 under Asset Light) have already been launched under these two models and over 50% of all upcoming additions will be capital-light, underscoring the Company’s firm commitment to scalable, capital-efficient growth.

• Strengthening the Balance Sheet through Capital Discipline:

The Company has undertaken a decisive reset of its fiscal position through disciplined capital allocation, strong free cash generation and proactive balance sheet strengthening.

Capex Reduction: Capital expenditure was sharply reduced from 6,269 million in FY 202324 to approximately 3,249 million in FY 2024-25 (` 2267 million in 9M FY’26), reflecting tighter investment discipline and the pivot toward capitalefficient growth.

Free Cash Generation: Despite operating volatility during FY 2024-25, effective working capital management ensured healthy cash flows and in the first 9 months of FY 2025-26, the Company generated significant free cash of ` 5,870 million.

Sharp Net Debt Reduction: This sustained focus on cash generation and financial prudence has translated into a sharp reduction in net debt—from 14,304 million as on March 31, 2023 to 3,652 million as on December 31, 2025—representing a cumulative deleveraging of ` 10,652 million, or 74%, over the past 2.75 years.

Credit Rating: Even through periods of box office volatility, the Company has continued to strengthen its balance sheet and improve its credit profile, with its rating upgrading from ‘CRISIL AA– with Watch Positive’ at the time of merger in February 2023 to ‘CRISIL AA with Stable’ outlook from February 16, 2024 onwards— underscoring the credibility of its financial turnaround.

Industry Thought Leadership & Policy Engagement:

PVR INOX continues to play an influential role in shaping the future of India’s entertainment ecosystem through active policy engagement and global industry leadership. In a significant recognition of this role, the Managing Director was invited by the Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi to join the Advisory Board of WAVES 2025 (World AudioVisual and Entertainment Summit)—a global platform aimed at positioning India as a hub for

18

Postal Ballot Notice

PVR INOX LIMITED

creativity, culture, and the audio-visual economy. As part of this initiative, Mr. Bijli participated in high-level deliberations with global and national leaders from the creative industries to explore how entertainment can serve as a key economic growth driver. This engagement underscores PVR INOX’s standing as a thought leader in the cinematic and creative industries, both in India and internationally.

• ESG Achievements:

The company enhanced its environmental footprint by expanding solar installations, upgrading to energyefficient LED lighting and implementing water-saving fixtures across cinemas, alongside consistent wastesegregation practices. On the social front, it reinforced a safe, inclusive and compliant workplace through a robust EHS framework, stronger POSH mechanisms, accessible cinema initiatives and responsible labour and supplier practices. Governance standards were elevated through refreshed SASB-aligned materiality mapping, strengthened codes and policies, transparent grievance systems and prudent financial management supported by a capital-light growth approach.

4. Performance Metrics & Evaluation for Determining Variable Pay and Annual Increment:

The Company is committed to upholding the highest standards of transparency and accountability in determining the remuneration of its Executive Directors. The remuneration determination process is structured, objective and clearly articulated, and is anchored in defined performance benchmarks aligned with the Company’s strategic priorities and the distinct roles and responsibilities of the Executive Directors. These performance parameters are measurable, periodically reviewed and form the basis for a performance evaluation framework that incorporates both quantitative financial metrics and qualitative assessments.

The remuneration structure for the Executive Directors is designed to promote long-term, sustainable value creation and to closely align their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders and other stakeholders. The annual variable pay, for each of the Executive Directors, shall be payable at the end of the relevant financial year during the proposed tenure, subject to the achievement of key performance indicators (KPIs) as determined by the Board or the NRC from time to time. Given the nature of the cinema exhibition

business, which is significantly influenced by external factors outside the direct control of management, such as film content availability and audience response, the NRC evaluates performance in the context of prevailing industry conditions and overall business outcomes.

The indicative performance parameters include the following:

5. Peer Benchmarking:

To maintain fairness and competitiveness, remuneration is also benchmarked against prevailing market data. For this purpose, the Company has, in accordance with the directions of the NRC, engaged services of a Big Four Consulting Firm to conduct a compensation benchmarking study. The study selected appropriate peer set of similar sized companies with promoter incumbent MD and ED profiles and determined the compensation levels / pay-mix prevalent in the market for MD and ED positions. Given the limited availability of directly comparable listed peers in India with similar business models and scale, the benchmarking exercise also included a limited, high-level review of global media and entertainment companies as a supplementary reference point. Such global practices were considered only to the extent relevant, recognising material differences in market size, revenue mix, cost structures, maturity of capital markets, regulatory and governance frameworks, and executive labour markets between India and overseas jurisdictions including the differences set out below:

  • Higher fixed cost structure: Indian multiplexes have higher fixed costs (rent and other overheads) due to limited quality mall supply, making margins

19

==> picture [88 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

more sensitive to occupancy than in global markets.

  • Pricing and regulation: In India ticket prices are capped in some key states and pricing power is lower given India’s lower spending capacity per capita. Licensing and censorship norms also impact operations and monetisation.

  • Different market structure: Lower screen density, different content/windowing dynamics, and lower monetisation per patron versus mature overseas markets, also limits the relevance of global peer benchmarks for performance assessment.

The remuneration has been determined based on the Managing Directors’ and Executive Directors’ qualifications, experience, and the scope of responsibilities. It is benchmarked against the industry standards and company size to ensure competitiveness and fairness. The package promotes pay-forperformance through clearly defined and measurable performance metrics.

The independent benchmarking study found that the proposed remuneration for the Managing Director is positioned fairly on both Total Fixed Pay and Total Cost to Company when compared to the prevailing compensation levels for senior leaders managing comparable scale and complexity of operations across similar organizations in India, with an approximate 50:50 mix of fixed and variable compensation in alignment with prevailing market norms. Accordingly, the Board has recommended a fixed compensation of ` 130.9 million p.a. for the MD position w.e.f. 1[st] April 2026 with a maximum variable compensation of 100% of the fixed compensation as aforesaid. The benchmarking confirms that the proposed remuneration is competitive and promotes pay-forperformance through clearly defined KPIs, and remains well within industry standards.

For ED position, the study suggested that the proposed remuneration for the Executive Director is positioned fairly on both Total Fixed Pay and Total Cost to Company when compared to the prevailing compensation levels for senior leaders managing comparable scale and complexity of operations across similar organizations in India, with an approximate 50:50 mix of fixed and variable compensation in alignment with prevailing market norms. Accordingly, the Board has

recommended a fixed compensation of ` 70.6 million p.a. for the ED position w.e.f. 1[st] April, 2026 with a maximum variable compensation of 100% of the fixed compensation as aforesaid. The benchmarking confirms that the proposed remuneration is competitive and promotes pay-for-performance through clearly defined KPIs, and remains well within industry standards.

6. Governance Safeguards:

In addition, the remuneration structure for the Managing Director and the Executive Director incorporates the following key elements:

 Independent review by NRC Committee: Nomination & Remuneration Committee of the Company consists of Independent Directors/NonExecutive Director, enabling an independent review & approval of the terms of the proposed remuneration to both the Directors.

 Performance-Linked Variable Pay: The variable component shall be capped at 100% of the fixed salary and is entirely linked to the achievement of defined performance parameters.

 Clawback Mechanism: The Company retains the right to recover variable pay in the event of a material restatement of financial statements.

 Disclosure and Transparency: Details of remuneration components and the performance evaluation will be disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report.

 Tenure Alignment: The approved remuneration shall remain co-terminus with the respective terms of appointment of the Managing Director and the Executive Director.

 Remuneration from group companies: Both Directors do not receive any remuneration or sitting fees from any subsidiary company of the Company, where they are a board member.

7. Regulatory Compliance & Shareholders Considerations:

This proposal complies with Regulation 17(6)(e) of SEBI LODR Regulations and the members may kindly note that for the purposes of calculating the managerial remuneration, the Company needs to follow the guidelines set forth in Section 196, 197, 198 read with Schedule-V of the Companies Act 2013. Due to an unpredictable and weak film slate including sharp

20

PVR INOX LIMITED

drop in Hollywood content, in the past, which led to lower admissions, lower F&B spend and reduced boxoffice revenue, the Company does not have adequate profits as per the audited financial statements of the Company for 31st March 2025. Therefore, even with improvements in the Company’s operating performance in the coming years, profits for purpose of computation of managerial remuneration will remain inadequate due to significant amount of brought forward losses.

Therefore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, even if in the subsequent financial years the Company has no profits or its profits are inadequate, the Company will continue to pay the aforesaid total remuneration as the minimum remuneration.

The members may kindly note that the Board on the recommendation of the NRC has approved and recommended the remuneration of Mr. Ajay Kumar Bijli and Mr. Sanjeev Kumar in their meetings dated 03[rd] February, 2026 and 05[th] February, 2026 respectively, for the approval of the members of the Company by way of special resolution.

8. Interest of Directors and Key Managerial Personnel:

Mr. Ajay Kumar Bijli and Mr. Sanjeev Kumar are interested in the resolutions set out at Item no. 1 & 2 of the Notice, respectively, with regard to payment of remuneration to them and their respective relatives may also be deemed to be interested in the above resolutions to the extent of their shareholding interest, if any, in the Company. Save and except the above, none of the other directors or key managerial personnel of the Company or their relatives are, in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in these resolutions.

9. Board Recommendation:

III. Other information:

Reasons of loss or inadequate
profts
Despite robust cost controls and operational discipline, FY’25 proftability was impacted
by a 10% decline in admissions from 150.7 million in FY’24 to 136.3 million in FY’25 —
primarily due to a muted content slate from both Bollywood and Hollywood. Admissions
from original Hindi titles witnessed a 24% decline, due to a 14% drop in number of
original Hindi titles and absence of tentpole flms from leading superstars. English
content saw a 29% de-growth in admissions in FY’25 due to the prolonged impact of
the 2023 Hollywood strike.
While the company effectively maintained its average ticket price at259 and slightly<br>improved F&B spend per head to134, content supply challenges led to a decline in
admissions, resulting in a 7% de-growth in revenue from60,485 million in FY’24 to
56,061 million in FY’25. The fxed cost nature of the exhibition business meant that even
marginal revenue compression had a disproportionate impact on profts.

Steps taken or proposed to be
taken for improvement
In response to one of the most uneven content years for cinema in FY’25, PVR INOX
proactively shifted its approach from passively managing footfalls to actively creating
demand. This included over 250 curated content re-releases that attracted 7 million
patrons and contributed124 crore in box offce revenue, alongside fve discounted<br>cinema celebration days and new initiatives like Blockbuster Tuesdays and Seniors Day<br>Mondays. Hyperlocal outreach, personalized offerings like ScreenIt and Flexi Show, and<br>alternate content such as concerts, sports screenings, and international flm festivals<br>further helped sustain engagement and broaden the audience base.<br>To enhance circuit effciency, 72 loss making screens across 21 properties were exited<br>following rigorous, data-backed evaluation. Cost discipline remained a continuous<br>focus, aided by early merger synergies. At the same time, the company remained<br>focused on strengthening its balance sheet—reducing net debt by3,149 million
during FY’25. Growth efforts were directed toward capital-light models like FOCO and
Asset-Light formats, with over 50% of future screen additions aligned to these scalable,
low-capex formats.
With an expected recovery in admissions, the combination of structural improvements,
cost control, and merger synergies is well-positioned to drive a rebound in proftability.
Expected increase in productivity
and profts in measurable terms
1. A strong content slate:CY 2025 witnessed one of the strongest and most
diversifed content slates in recent years, with consistent performances across Hindi,
Hollywood, and regional cinema. Unlike periods driven by a handful of outsized
blockbusters, the year saw broad-based success, with 37 flms crossing the100<br>crore mark, including 29 flms in 9M FY’26, underscoring the depth and resilience<br>of theatrical demand. With Bollywood offering a regular release calendar and<br>strong content and Hollywood delivering a sharp revival on the back of major<br>franchise releases. Further accentuated by Regional cinema which continue to scale<br>new highs, with strong contributions from Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu<br>flms.<br>2. Improvement in Key Operating parameters:The frst 9 months of FY’26 saw<br>strong year-on-year improvement across all key operating metrics. Admissions<br>grew by ~12% YoY to 119 million, supported by a consistent content pipeline and<br>targeted footfall initiatives. Average Ticket Price (ATP) increased by ~4% YoY to
271, driven by premium and special formats, better content mix and calibrated
pricing, while Spend per Head (SPH) rose ~4% YoY to`143, aided by menu
innovation, bundled offers and higher consumption.
3. Increase in Screen Portfolio:In FY’26, we plan to add nearly100 new screens,
with over 50% coming through capital-light formats such as the FOCO and Asset-
Light models. This strategic shift enables us to expand our footprint with reduced
capital outlay, thereby enhancing return on capital employed (ROCE). We have
already opened 79 screens till date of which 37 are under the Capital light formats.
4. Focus on Premiumization:As part of our long-term strategy to enhance revenue
per patron and elevate the cinema-going experience, in FY’25, we added 77 new
screens, of which 21 were premium and special formats, including Director’s Cut,
Insignia, IMAX, 4DX, and Luxe. In FY’26 till date we have added 24 premium
screens out of the 79 that we have added so far. With this, our total premium screen
count stands at 285, representing 16% of our 1,791 screen network as on date.
5. Benefit of cost optimization and merger synergy:Over the past few years,
we have undertaken rigorous cost optimization measures, where fxed costs have
remained largely fat (on a per screen basis) despite infationary pressures. These
efforts refect a structural recalibration of our operating model, with tighter controls
on manpower, utilities, and overheads. With a leaner cost structure and merger
synergies baked in, the improvement in key operating metrics is clearly refecting
in the proftability for Q2 & Q3 FY’26 when the business delivered ~18% EBITDA
margins — comparable to pre-pandemic margins.
