The company shifted from a loss of ₹125 crore in Q4 FY25 to a ₹187 crore profit in Q4 FY26.
Unlike last year, the strong performance of Hindi films epecially Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar led to a box office growth. Q4 FY26 recorded the highest-ever fourth-quarter collections for the company, supported by titles including Dhurandhar – The Revenge, Border 2, and Project Hail Mary, among others.
The company’s revenue grew by 25.8%, from Rs 1,230 crore in Q4 FY25 to Rs 1,547 crore in Q4 FY26.
The resurgence of original Hindi cinema was the standout, with Bollywood collections growing 55% year-on-year, delivering its best year ever. English cinema also had a strong year, growing 54% on a robust Hollywood slate.
Another big positive trend in FY26 was the solid comeback of mid-scale films grossing Rs 100-200 crores, which saw its share rising from 12% to 20% — evidence that growth is now broader, more resilient, and less dependent on a handful of mega-blockbusters.
According to Ajay Bijili, Managing director PVR INOX, “FY26 represented a structural inflection for PVR INOX. With a strong content slate ahead, a capital-light expansion strategy and a significantly strengthened balance sheet, we believe the company is entering its next phase of sustainable growth. Our focus remains on delighting consumers, driving footfalls through innovation, and creating enduring value for our shareholders.
