• Since they had a unique way of interaction with their customers, they had to incur heavy costs in implementing this strategy of high price.
• The pricing strategy adopted by PVR is skimming the market on weekends and penetrating the market on weekdays. The prices also depends the movie and the time of the day it is being screened.
• PVR lowers ticket prices charged on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, where demand is less, compared with Friday, Saturday and Sunday, where demand is greater.
• Demand for going to the cinema is relatively price elastic on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays and relatively price inelastic on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Theirs goal in offering tickets at lower prices is to attract more customers (thereby increasing the occupancy rate) and increase box office revenue
