Karnataka's movie ticket price cap: Movie goers may have to pay just Rs 200; how it will hit multiplex chains like PVR-Inox
Wednesday, 16 July 2025 () Karnataka's government is proposing a Rs 200 price cap on movie tickets, impacting major cinema chains like PVR-Inox, which relies heavily on the state for revenue. This move could significantly reduce PVR-Inox's average ticket price and overall earnings, especially affecting premium formats in Bengaluru. The decision, following a previous attempt in 2017, faces potential legal challenges from theatre owners.
Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis welcomed the price cap drop with caution saying it's “nothing to write home about”. It comes as households across Britain are expected to see their energy bills..
