PVR consolidated net profit at Rs 27.66 cr in second quarter

Multiplex chain operator PVR Ltd today reported a consolidated net profit at Rs 27.66 crore for the second quarter ended September 30.

The company had posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 16.14 crore in the same quarter of the previous fiscal, PVR said in a filing to the BSE.

Net sales during the period under review stood at Rs 363.11 crore, while in the same period last year it was Rs 192.12 crore, it added.
