Post the merger, INOX promoters will own a 16.7 percent stake, while PVR promoters will have a 10.6 percent stake in the combined entity. It is expected that the screen count will increase to 3,000-4,000 screens in five years for the combined entity.

 

While Ajay Bijli will be the Managing Director of the combined entity, Sanjeev Kumar would be appointed as the Executive Director. INOX Group Chairman Pavan Kumar Jain will be appointed as the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board and Siddharth Jain will be appointed as Non-Executive Non-Independent Director.
