Court Said Time Is Valuable and No Business Has the Right to Profit from Consumers' Time and Money Unfairly

- Press Trust of India

BENGALURU: A district consumer court in Bengaluru has found theatre chain PVR INOX at fault for delaying film screenings by airing excessive advertisements, calling it an "unfair" trade practice. The court also ordered the multiplex chain to pay ₹1 lakh in punitive damages and ensure that the actual start time of movies is clearly communicated to viewers.

The case was brought forward by a Bengaluru resident who, along with two family members, attended a 4.05 pm show of Sam Bahadur in December 2023.
