2. RISK FACTORS An investment in equity shares involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider all the information in this Draft Prospectus including the risks described below, in addition to the other information contained in this Draft Prospectus, before making any investment decision relating to the Equity Shares. If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer, the trading price of the Company’s Equity Shares could decline, and the investor may lose all or part of his investment. Note: Unless specified or quantified in the relevant risk factors below, the Company is not in a position to quantify the financial or other implication of any risks mentioned herein under:

Materiality:

The Risk factors have been determined on the basis of their materiality. The following factors have been considered for determining the materiality:

a) Some events may not be material individually, but may be found material collectively. b) Some events may have material impact qualitatively instead of quantitatively. c) Some events may not be material at present but may be having material impacts in future.

The risk factors are as envisaged by the management along with the proposals to address the risk, if any. Wherever possible, the financial impact of the risk factors has been quantified.

A. RISK FACTORS SPECIFIC TO THE PROJECT AND INTERNAL TO THE COMPANY:

OUTSTANDING LITIGATIONS

The following litigations are outstanding against the Company:

Against the Company:

Litigation: Civil Cases

Sr. Party Place of Court before which the Date Claim No. Litigation Litigation is pending Instituted Amount 1 Mr. Sanjay Indore District Consumer 30/04/2005 Rs. 80,000 Maheshwari Forum, Indore 2 Ms. Sandhya Bapna Indore District Consumer 10/01/2005 Rs. 12,800 Forum, Indore

Case History: Case filed by Mr. Sanjay Maheshwari on 30th April 2005 regarding the loss of Vehicle from the Parking lot of the multiplex, Velocity III. The Company has furnished its opinion by denying the charges filed by the party. At present the case is pending with the District Consumer Forum at Indore.

Case filed by Ms. Sandhya Bapna on 10th January 2005 for not providing the amenities at multiplex, Velocity III, as promised. The Company has furnished its opinion by denying the charges filed by the party. At present the case is pending with the District Consumer Forum at Indore.

The charges mentioned above have already been denied before the appropriate court of law. However, the matter is sub-judice and no further comments would be appropriate.

vii

Possible Delay In Project Implementation

Any delay in implementation of the Project of Multiplex at Indore & Bhopal like construction delays, delay in receipt of government approvals could lead to cost overruns making the Project unviable.

The Company has already commissioned such project, first of its kind in the whole of state of Madhya Pradesh, in time and hence, they do not envisage any delay in its implementation. However any cost escalation due to delay, if any, for reasons beyond the control of the management, has been duly taken care of under the contingency already provided for.

Loss By Promoter Group Company

The promoter group company Jupiter Securities & Properties Private Limited has incurred a loss of Rs. 65.51 thousand during the year ended 31st March 2005 & a loss of Rs.3.86 thousand in the year ended 31st March 2004.

The loss for two years is less than Rs 70,000/-.

Retention of Key Technical Employees

The Company is dependent on the senior members of its managerial team. The future performance of the Company might be affected if any of these managerial personnel discontinues working with the Company. The loss of any members of its key personnel may have a material adverse effect on its business and financial condition.

The Company has a very low employee turnover. The promoters have been in diversified business for more than two decades and they feel there is no dearth of qualified and technical personnel in India, hence, there is no likely hood of any adverse material effect on the projects.

Orders for equipment

The total cost of equipments for the proposed Multiplex to be set up at Indore and Bhopal is Rs. 1118.00 lacs. Company has not placed orders for the equipments to be placed at the Multiplex.

The Quotation for almost all the equipments has been received. The company does not foresee any problems in obtaining all the necessary equipments as the order can be placed two months before the launch of Multiplex. Therefore, the Company feels that the appropriate time for placing orders has not yet come.

Statutory Approvals

The Company has not received all the statutory approvals from the government for implementation of the Multiplex project in Indore and Bhopal.

The company would be required to obtain the following licences/approvals when the company will commence operations in Indore & Bhopal:

a. Permission for land use for the project b. Permission of Municipal Corporation for construction of Multiplex c. License from District Collector for running cinema d. Registration under Shops & Establishments Act e. Approvals for safety measures in the multiplex

viii Brahma Interactive Limited

The chronology of aforesaid operations is statutory and prescribed. All the aforesaid permissions are subject to fulfillment of prescribed conditions. The management does not anticipate any apparent obstruction in fulfillment of those conditions because the promoters are pioneers of multiplex business in the state of Madhya Pradesh.

Appraisal of the Project

The objects of the issue for which the funds are being raised have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution or any independent agency. The company has estimated the total fund requirement internally.

The entire debt portion to meet the total cost of project has already been sanctioned by the banks. The debt is more than 40% in the total means of finance. Hence, there is no further need of any appraisal by any independent agency.

Purchase of Property

For the proposed project of building the multiplex at Indore and Bhopal, the company is yet to purchase the land. The location of a multiplex in a particular city plays a very important role in the success of that multiplex. Since the location is not identified, it is possible that company will have adverse affect on its revenue.

The Company is at advanced stage of identification of the suitable land for both the projects and negotiations are already on. Considering the current state of the matter, the Company do not envisage any delay due to this factor.

Competition

The company currently has competition only from single cinema theatres. But very soon two large players with the multiplex business will set up the Multiplex in Indore. PVR Limited will set up a Multiplex in Indore which is five Kilometers from the Multiplex – Velocity III. It will be a five screen multiplex having a total seating capacity 1,180. Adlabs is launching multiplex in Indore by December 2005 with the multiplex of four screens and number of seats as 1200. This will increase the competition for the Company and might adversely affect our business and results of operations, if the Company is not able to compete effectively.

The Company is of the firm opinion that the influx of more multiplexes in the city will only add depth to the market and strengthen the cinema going habit of the public at large.

Substitutes For Cinema

Substitutes for cinema like piracy and home viewing may have adverse impact on our business as there is inadequate enforcement of anti-piracy laws in India and there is increasing demand for home viewing options.

With the advent of multiplexes and availability of better movie products, the footfalls to such places has substantially increased over a period of time. The multiplexes have been identified by the public at large as safe and secure place for family entertainment; hence, the influx of more multiplexes has added depth to the market and strengthened the cinema going habit.

Revenue Of Multiplex

The number of patrons will be high in the multiplex only if the films that the company displays are a hit film. From time to time, the film industry fails to produce block bluster films or the films with widespread appeal. Therefore, the display of unpopular films leads to decline in the number of patrons.

ix

There are other streams of revenue like advertising, rental, food and beverages etc to supplement the overall revenue in multiplexes.

Dependence

The Company fully depends on the standard functioning process for the proper running of multiplex. If there is any failure in this process then it will affect the performance and financial condition of the Company.

The functioning process is not very technical and the industry standards of the equipments used are of very high quality and suitable safeguards would always be inbuilt in to the system to prevent any failure in the process.

No Monitoring Agency

There has been no appointment of Monitoring Agency that would have monitored the deployment of funds raised through this public issue.

The entire debt portion to meet the total cost of project has already been sanctioned by the banks. The debt is more than 40% in the total means of finance hence, the Company is of the opinion that there is no further need of any monitoring by any independent agency.

Property in respect of Multiplex is not owned by the Company

The land where multiplex, Velocity III is situated is on a long term lease for 30 years which is extendable for further period of 60 years in two installments.

The long term lease is an established and legal mode of ownership in immovable properties wherein the lease premium is actually a substitute and equivalent to sale consideration. This is entirely different from rental properties.

Promoters will have significant control in the Company

After completion of this, the promoters of the Company will continue to own 51% of the Equity Shares. As a result, the promoters will have decision making power over all the matters requiring shareholder’s approval.

This kind of control is essential to take crucial operating decisions which are a must for the good functioning of the company. However, the policy decisions require holding in shares beyond 75%, hence, there the shareholders will always play a decisive role.

Unionisation of employees in future

The employees are not represented by any labour union. But in future, employees may unionise which might restrict the labour policies.

As on date there is no labour union and Company do not foresee any problem arising out of this in future.

Non Declaration of Dividend in Previous Years

The Company has not declared any dividend in previous five years.

In a closely held company non distribution of dividend and redeployment of profits in the project is always a preferred action.

x Brahma Interactive Limited

Allotment of shares at a price lower than the Issue Price.

The Company has allotted 20,68,050 Equity Shares to its Existing Shareholders and Associates at a price of Rs. 22/- per share on 24th January 2006. The Issue Price of this allotment is less than the price at which the shares are being issued under this Prospectus.

The promoters have put in lot of efforts and financial stake in the company during last three years and have created a company which is asset rich and is fully geared to earn substantially in the immediate future. Moreover, the promoters have also brought in shares at a premium. The promoters feel that the valuation of shares for public subscription is fully justified in view of the future earning potential of the company.

Further issuance of Equity Share may dilute the stake of Investors

If there is any further issue of Equity Share or Convertible Securities by the Company then that may dilute the stake of investors in the Equity Shares. Inaddition any perception by investors that such issuances or sales might occur could also affect the Market Price of the Equity Shares.

Any decision on issue of further capital will always be taken by the shareholders with special majority and hence, there should not be any such apprehension.

Entertainment Tax Exemption will expire in next three years

The Multiplex Velocity III enjoys the Entertainment tax exemption sanctioned by Commercial Tax Department of Madhya Pradesh from the year 2003-04 . The details of it is as follows:

Period of Exemption % of Exemption First, second and third year after completion of the multiplex complex, i.e., 100% first three years from the date of commercial exhibition of a movie in any of the cinema halls of such complex. Fourth year 75% Fifth year 50%

The exemption will start reducing from the year 2006-07 and from the year 2008-09 the benefits of entertainment tax exemption will not be available to the Company.

The savings on account of exemption of entertainment tax is intended to offset capital cost of the project. The operations are not likely to be affected owing to cessation of the tax exemption after two years.

Results fluctuate due to seasonal business

The Entertainment business, specially the exhibition of films, has been seasonal. Because the financial performance of the Company keeps on fluctuating from Quarter to Quarter.

Entertainment business is seasonal only to the extent of examinations of students which is less than two months in a year. Seasonality to such an extent applies to every business. Therefore, the operations are not likely to be affected owing this.

Changes In The Technology

The Company depends on the traditional projection equipment for screening the movie. But gradually the emerging digital projection technologies may replace the traditional celluloid projection technologies. Therefore, the company may have to invest in new technology. This investment will increase our capital expenditure.

xi

The project is equipped with the best technology available as on date which is scalable to the new and upgraded technology which may be available in future

B. RISK FACTORS EXTERNAL TO THE COMPANY:

Changes In The Technology

The Company depends on the traditional projection equipment for screening the movie. But gradually the emerging digital projection technologies may replace the traditional celluloid projection technologies. Therefore, the company may have to invest in new technology. This investment will increase our capital expenditure.

The project is equipped with the best technology available as on date which is scalable to the new and upgraded technology which may be available in future.

Changes in the domestic tax laws:

Any changes in the tax laws in India particularly income tax might lead to increased Tax Liability of the Company thereby putting pressures on profitability. Change in tax laws, particularly income tax, can have an impact on the post-tax profits of the Company However, changes in domestic laws would be applicable to the industry as a whole where this project alone will not be affected.

Post-issue volatilty in prices of the script:

The price of the Company’s equity shares in Indian stock exchanges may fluctuate after this Issue as a result of several factors, including: a) Volatility in the Indian and Global securities market; b) The results of operations and performance; c) Perceptions about the Company’s future performance or the performance of other Indian companies in the same industry; d) Performance of the Company’s competitors in the industry and market perception of investments in the sector; e) Adverse media reports on the Company or on the industry; f) Change in the estimates of the Company’s performance or recommendations by financial analysts; g) Significant development in India’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies; and h) Significant development in India’s fiscal and environmental regulations.

The Company would always strive for best efforts for timely implementation of the project and its successful operations thereafter. The financial and operating strengths of the project would largely depend on these factors.

Active Trading

There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the equity shares will develop or be sustained after this Issue, or that prices at which the Company’s equity shares are initially offered will correspond to the prices at which the Company equity shares will trade in the market subsequent to this Issue. The Company’s share price could be volatile and may also decline.

Industry

The Indian Entertainment Industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of the Indian economy riding on the economic growth and rising income levels that India has been experiencing in the past few years. The Industry comprises of television, music, radio and live shows. The total Industry is at over Rs. 20,000 crore which is expected to grow at 18% p.a. to reach at Rs. 45,000 crore by 2009.

The film segment contributes 28% to the total industry revenue. It is the most popular form of entertainment in India. The Indian Film Industry is the largest in the world in terms of number of films produced and admissions. Hindi Films share the major contribution followed by the regional films in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.

Film Industry is divided into three sections: ƒ Production – process of making the film. ƒ Distribution – buys distribution rights from the film produces to exhibit the films in the cinemas across the country. ƒ Exhibition – deals with exhibiting the film in cinemas.

Film Industry is expected to rise on the basis of following factors: a. Growth of multiplexes, b. Increasing Indian Diaspora, c. Popularity of international movies, d. Funding by NRIs to , e. Use of animation, f. Digital distribution formats, g. Emergence of Integrated Film Companies h. Developments in terms of corporatisation i. Organised fundings from Banks & Financial Institutions

The rapid growth of multiplex has ensured that there is a platform to screen movies that appeals to niche audience in the overall movie viewer market. This in turn has successfully created a demand for small budget movies catering to such niche tastes and has effectively broadened the Indian Film market. It has also brought back the urban Indian film viewers to the movie halls.

The key factors for the growth of multiplex are:

ƒ Organised Retail Boom – One of the key elements driving the success of a mall is its ability to drive footfalls consistently. Multiplexes are one of the anchor tenants to large format malls, as they provide increase footfalls in shopping malls by 40-50 percent.

ƒ Quality Theatre Complexes – Although multiplex tickets are usually priced at premium as compared to the ticket prices of single screens, they continue to attract patrons (both individuals and families), as they offer better quality of service and ambience.

1

ƒ Alternate sources of content – They are experimenting with New software content like live sporting events – Football, Cricket, 1-Grand Prix, Music Concerts, Beauty Pageants etc. are experimented to get the alternative source.

ƒ Entertainment Tax – Many state governments have announced entertainment tax benefits policy, so that there is rise in investment in film exhibition business. This has led to the growth of Multiplex Cinemas and also conversion of single-screen theaters into Multiplexes.

Film Distribution

Distribution has evolved from mass-film production. Increasing importance of multiplexes with many screens has encouraged this trend of segment-specific films. Film distributors play various roles for the Film Industry. They are:

ƒ Part Financing of films ƒ Marketing of the films ƒ Selection of exhibition centre ƒ Managing the logistics of physical prints distribution

The film distribution system in India is a territory based. The country is geographically divided into 14 distribution territories and film producers tend to sell distribution rights for each territory.

The major players in the Indian film distribution sector are VIP Enterprises, Yashraj Films, Shri Ashtavinayak Films, Shringar Films Private Limited, Rajshri, UTV, Gini Art, GV Mehta, Mukta Movies, Gunjan Films, PVR Pictures and Piyali Films.

Rationale for setting up multiplexes at Bhopal and Indore

Multiplex at Bhopal

Brahma Interactive Limited has identified Bhopal as a target market and a City which is absolutely ready for a Multiplex. The city with a large population spread out over 286 Sq. K.M. With a huge service class/student population, Industrialisation and business community alongwith burgeoning middle class with high aspirations and latent desire for the movie going habit which is at present unfulfilled due to the non-availability of multiplexes and the dilapidated state of old cinemas.

Brahma Interactive Limited has plans to locate the multiplex at Hoshangabad road which is thickly populated and conveniently accessible to the posh as well as the middle class areas of Bhopal including the Arera Colony, University area, BHEL, M.P. Nagar etc. Bhopal at present has approximately 13 Cinemas with the total seating capacity of 13451.

Multiplex at Indore

BIL will set up another multiplex in western part of Indore. The western part of the city represents old city spread over in 10 SQ.KM. Comprises of Rajwada, Jawahar Marg, Cloth Market, Bada Ganpati, Aerodrome Road, Rajmohalla, MOG Lines, Gumashta Nagar, Lalbaugh, Sindhi Colony, Annapurna, Sudama Nagar, Juni Indore, Laxamibai Nagar, Harsidhi etc. The 40% of population of Indore is situated in western part total population of 0.80 million. The proposed plan of cinema will take care of local public expectations for better entertainment avenue in western Zone. Company has planned to set up entertainment complex there where there are only two cinemas.

The proposed multiplexes are most likely to be one of the most attractive visiting places for the residents of that geographical location. The multiplexes, comprising of 4 screens, are expected to house some of the prominent brands and establishments, thus ensuring adequate visibility.

The company is in the process of getting possession of the land. On receiving the possession of the site, the company will furnish the theater and install equipments required for operating a multiplex. All the approvals for operating the multiplex will be obtained in due course by the time construction of the site. The approximate cost for whole project is estimated at Rs. 3100 Lakhs. The grant of entertainment tax exemption for the proposed multiplex will be under the provisions of Government of Madhya Pradesh Notification No (37)-B-5-16-2000/Comm Tax-5(1) dated 25.10.2001. The company expect to commence the operation of first of the proposed multiplex by March 07 and subsequently the operation of the second multiplex is likely to commence by September 07.

The company has drawn out a developed model for these multiplexes which would take care of need of bigger space to accommodate variety of activities including full fledged restaurant, coffee shop, book shop, multiple product shopping, childrens’ game and other ancillary facilities and amenities to provide the viewers unique entertainment experience of international standards.

21

Each of the twin multiplex projects would, barring unforeseen circumstances, comprise of the followings:

a. Centrally Air Conditioned with adequate power back up facilities b. Land area of about 60,000 square feet in potential geographical location c. Construction area of about 1,00,000 square feet with most modern architecture and latest infrastructural facilities d. Multi Screen Cinema having an aggregate capacity of about 1100 seats e. Shopping arena of about 30,000 square feet f. Other facilities which would include food court, restaurant, coffee shop, book shop, exhibition/party hall, gaming zone, discotheque etc

Multiplex of this kind will open attractive business avenues for well known Indian and International retail and food chains to open their outlets there at the multiplexes. In other words, the multiplex facilities will attract retail brands and brand product outlets will add attraction to the multiplex. The visiting public to the multiplex will be the actual beneficiary in this scenario.

The benefit under section 80IB(7A) is not available in respect of a multiplex theatre located within municipal jurisdiction of Chennai, Delhi, Mumbai or Kolkata. Further, in order to avail the benefits under section 80IA(7), the Company must build, own and operate the multiplex theatre (as defined). The eligible deduction would be fifty per cent of the profits and gains derived from such multiplex theatre, for a period of five consecutive years beginning from the initial year of the said multiplex theatre.

1.2 Income from Mutual Fund units: Income, if any, received by the Company on units of a Mutual Fund specified under Section 10(23D) of the Act will be tax-exempt under Section 10(35) of the Act.

1.3 Capital gains: Capital assets are to be categorized into short term capital assets and long term capital assets based on the period of holding. All capital assets (except shares held in a Company or any other listed securities or units of UTI or Mutual Fund units) are considered to be long-term capital assets if they are held for a period in excess of 36 months. Shares held in a Company or any other listed securities or units of UTI and Mutual Fund units are considered as long term capital assets if these are held for a period exceeding 12 months.

Section 48 of the Act, which prescribes the mode of computation of capital gains, provides for deduction of cost of acquisition/improvement and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of a capital asset, from the sale consideration to arrive at the amount of capital gains. However, in respect of long term capital gains, for resident shareholders it is permitted to substitute the cost of acquisition/improvement with the indexed cost of acquisition/improvement, which adjusts the cost of acquisition/improvement by a cost inflation index, as notified from time to time.

From 1 October 2004, long-term capital gains arising on sale of equity shares and units of equity oriented mutual fund (as defined) under Section 10(23D) on a recognized stock exchange are exempt from tax under Section 10(38) of the Act on being subject to Securities Transaction Tax levied under Chapter VII of the Finance (No. 2) Act of 2004.

From 1 October 2004, under the provisions of section 111A of the Act, short-term capital gains arising on sale of equity shares and units of equity oriented mutual fund (as defined) under Section 10(23D) on recognized stock exchange are subject to tax at the rate of 11.22 per cent (basic rate of 10% to be increased by a surcharge of 10 per cent and the total to be increased by an additional surcharge by way of education cess at the rate of 2 per cent), provided the transfer is chargeable to Securities Transaction Tax being levied under Chapter VII of the Finance (No. 2) Act of 2004.

Under the provisions of Section 112 of the Act, long-term gains are subject to tax at a rate of 22.44 percent (basic rate of 20% to be increased by a surcharge of 10 per cent and the total to be increased by an additional surcharge by way of education cess at the rate of 2 per cent).

27

As per the proviso to Section 112(1), the long term capital gains arising on transfer of listed securities or units is restricted to 11.22 per cent (basic rate of 10% to be increased by a surcharge of 10 per cent and the total to be increased by an additional surcharge by way of education cess at the rate of 2 per cent) of gains without indexation benefit.

As per Section 54EC of the Act and subject to conditions specified therein, taxable long-term capital gains are not chargeable to tax to the extent they are invested in certain notified bonds within six months from the date of transfer. If the Company transfers or converts the notified bonds into money (as stipulated therein) within a period of three years from the date of their acquisition, the amount of gain exempted earlier would become chargeable in such year. The bonds specified for this Section are bonds issued by National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD), the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI), the National Housing bank (NHB), the Rural Electrification Corporation Ltd. (REC) and Small Industrial Development Bank of India (SIDBI).

As per Section 54ED of the Act and conditions specified therein, long term capital gains arising on listed securities or units are not be chargeable to tax to the extent such gains are invested in acquiring equity shares forming part of an “eligible issue of share capital”. The investment needs to be within six months from the relevant date of transfer. ‘Eligible issue of capital’ means an issue of equity shares that satisfied the following conditions:

• The issue is made by a public company formed and registered in India; and • The shares forming part of the issue are offered for subscription to the public.

There is a legal uncertainty over whether the benefit under this Section can be extended to shares forming part of the offer for sale by the selling shareholders. At this stage, it may be relevant to note that under Section 10(36) of the Act, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (‘CBDT’) has clarified vide Circular no.7/2003 dated 5 September 2003, that ‘public issue’ shall include the offer of equity shares in a company to the public through a prospectus, whether by the company or by the existing shareholders of the company.

2. BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO RESIDENT SHAREHOLDERS

Further, as per the provisions of Section 54F of the Act and subject to conditions specified therein, any taxable long term capital gains (other than on residential house but including those on shares) arising to an individual or Hindu Undivided Family are exempt from capital gains tax if the net sales consideration is utilized, within a period of one year before, or two years after the date of transfer, in purchase of a new residential house, or for construction of residential house within three year from the date of transfer, provided that the individual should not own more than one residential house. In case of a resident individual, the applicable surcharge is 10 per cent if the total income exceeds Rs. 1,000,000 and needs to be factored in before levy of additional surcharge by way of education cess of 2 per cent. In other cases the applicable surcharge is nil and additional surcharge by way of education cess of 2 per cent.

2.3 Credit for Securities Transaction Tax (STT): The STT paid by the shareholder in respect of the taxable securities transactions entered into in the course of the business would be eligible for rebate from the amount of income-tax on the income chargeable under the head ‘Profits and Gains under Business or Profession’ arising from taxable securities transactions.

To avail this benefit the entire net consideration received on such transfer needs to be invested within the prescribed period of six months in any specified asset or savings certificates referred to in Section 10(4B) of the Act.

If part of such net consideration is invested within the prescribed period of six months in any specified asset or savings certificates referred to in Section 10(4B) of the Act then such gains would not be chargeable to tax on a proportionate basis. For this purpose, net consideration means full value of the consideration received or accrued as a result of the transfer of the capital asset as reduced by any expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively in connection with such transfer.

1. Industry Overview

Indian Entertainment Industry

The Indian Entertainment Industry comprises of films, television, music, radio and live shows. According to the Report published by KPMG-CII titles Indian Entertainment Industry Focus 2010: Dreams to reality, the Industry has grown from Rs. 19,600 crore in 2003 to around Rs. 22,200 crore in 2004.

Overall, the industry is expected to grow at the rate of 18% per annum to touch Rs. 58,800 crore by 2010. This expected growth will be powered by new technological breakthroughs, increasing content variety ans a series of enabling regulatory actions – all of which are expected to change the way content is produced, delivered and consumed.

This growth will also be significantly aided by overall economic growth of India and of its rapidly growing, affluent consuming classes, which now spreads beyond the cities, and by the rising penetration of Indian Content outside India.

The bulk of the Entertainment Industry’s growth will continue to come from television, which is expected to cross Rs. 37000 crores by 2010 by leveraging the opportunities presented by new addressable delivery platforms like DTH, IP-TV and digital cable, which will drive pay revenues. The film industry is also expected to grow significantly, crossing Rs. 14000 crore by 2010, powered by increasing discipline and rising efficiency levels and penetration into hitherto uncharted overseas markets.

Indian Film Industry

The Indian film Industry till recently was not corporatised and was associated with a few producers and financers. With the advent of new generation producers & directors, a large degree of professionalism is coming into the Indian Film Industry.

32 Brahma Interactive Limited

The making of a film starts with the producers identifying either an idea or a story to be made into a film. The producer appoints the director and both together select the script writer, actors and all the other paraphernalia required for making of the film. At this juncture the movie is either financed by the producers or financers. Once the movie is complete the last stop as far as financial control is concerned lies with the processing lab which processes the prints. The film is then sold on territory-wise basis to various distributors which shall pay for their territory to the producer or the processing lab and collect the prints. The distributor purchases the rights to exhibit the film in a territory for different tenure depending on the agreement and the distributor now either rents cinemas in small centers or enters into revenue sharing arrangements with the multiplexes and large cinemas in bigger centers. The exhibitor or the cinema owner shall exhibit the movie after paying entertainment tax if applicable, sharing the revenue with the distributor.

Films have always been the most popular form of entertainment in India. The film segment has experienced a steady growth in the last few years with over 900 films released in 2004. Hindi Films share the major contribution followed by the regional films in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam. Though the segment has primarily been in the hands of unorganized sector till late, several developments in terms of corporatisation and organized fundings from Banks & Institutions have changed the face of the film industry.

Indian Film Industry is the largest in the world in terms of number of films produced & admissions. Admissions during the year 2004 reached a record 3100 million. The total admissions of Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) were only 1,200 million and that of United States was 1,500 million. The rest of Asia/Pacific was also only at about 1,000 million. The industry has grown over 3% since the year 2003, India continues to outperform the United States by over 50% in terms of the number of admissions

The Film Industry has been dominated by the growth of multiplexes. The increase in the number of multiplexes is making the movie goers, especially in urban India, experience a new way of enjoying movies. The rise in multiplexes in many ways has also impacted the movie-making business. Smaller size theatres provide the incentive for low budget niche films & experimental cinema. There has been change in terms of shortening of the average release time in theatres which provides a growth opportunity in the home video segment and increase the revenues from satellite and cable rights.

With the ever increasing Indian Diaspora around the world, the Indian film producers have tapped this population by producing films with cross over themes. Out of the total 15 films that were simultaneously released in local and international market, it is said that 7 films performed really well in the international markets. In 2004, estimated five movies generated more than USD 2 million each, in the UK & USA.

The International movies, especially Hollywood movies, are also very popular in India. Sony Pictures Releasing of India (formerly Columbia TriStar) is one of the largest international film distributors in India. The distributors adopt dual strategy of going for a wide portfolio of films and aggressive marketing across all types of markets which help them in achieving high revenue numbers.

The industry has started using various techniques like use of animation, running the film on the mobile phone, digital film making etc. to market the movies so that the movies run successfully.

There has also been the emergence of Integrated film companies i.e. film production and film exhibition companies venture into film distribution and vice-versa. Also the home video market is emerging in India in a big way. India boasts os having over five million home video and DVD subscribers in 2004, having grown over 50% from the previous year. After Satellite TV and overseas market, home video is turning out to be the next big source of revenue for Indian films.

33

Some of the growth drivers for the Indian Film Industry are:

o International Cinema is being dubbed in the Indian languages. This has contributed to higher admissions in theatres and increased spend on advertsing/promotions.

o Increasing importance of regional cinema - According to Industry estimates, Hindi language films command only a 40% share in the Indian film market whereas a large portion of the films made in India are produced in the south and east regions of India in their respective local languages. The regional language films too have the international viewership catering to the demands of regional base of Indians across the globe.

o Advertising in movie halls guarantees a captive audience unlike Television which has the capacity to show more commercials but does not ensure an audience. As movie watching is becoming more organized, advertising in theatres can help reach this “hard-to-get” demographic profile.

o Sale of merchandise products/promotional items is a new trend picking up in India. This is contributing significantly to the increased box office collection revenues of the segment.

Multiplexes

Though the concept of multiplex is not very old, its evolution across the country has been very swift. After IT and Mass Communication, this is probably the fastest developing sector in India. Growth of Multiplexes has ensured that there is a platform to screen movies that appeals to niche audience in the overall movie viewer market. This in turn has successfully created a demand for small budget movies catering to such niche tastes and has effectively broadened the Indian Film market. It has also brought back the urban Indian film viewers to the movie halls. The availability of a niche audience and smaller screening options have encouraged film producers to produce niche and low budget films and make a decent return on investment from such films. The multiplex boom has stimulated filmmakers to advertise and market their product in the right prospective and to right eyeballs.

Key Drivers

ƒ Organised Retail Boom

There has been a boom in the organized retail market in India. There are malls coming up in many cities and towns. One of the key elements driving the success of a mall is its ability to drive footfalls consistently. Hence each mall design looks at a mix of tenants – large and small. Multiplexes are one of the anchor tenants to large format malls, as they provide increase footfalls in shopping malls by 40-50 percent. At Multiplexes, any customer will be ready to spend on gaining total experience of entertainment in the form of a movie, a premium coffee and snacks and should be able to unveil a high indulgence.

ƒ Quality Theatre Complexes

Films are key destination for entertainment. Exhibition is the last mile in the film value chain where the patron interacts with the film. The poor condition of most single screens has turned away family audiences. Although multiplex tickets are usually priced at premium as compared to the ticket prices of singl screens, they continue to attract patrons (both individuals and families), as they offer better quality of service and ambience.

ƒ Alternate sources of content

In addition to film-based content, a new window of opportunity is being explored internationally by multiplexes. They are experimenting with new software content like live sporting events – Football, Cricket, 1-Grand Prix, Music Concerts, Beauty Pageants etc.

ƒ Entertainment Tax

The existing rate of entertainment tax in various states is high, which has affected profitability of players in the exhibition business. As a result, exhibitors (especially the single screen owners) have not been able to channelise investments for maintaining and/or upgrading their theatres. A worsening quality of theatres has resulted in a lower audience turnout, which further puts a strain on profitability.

Multiplexes offer significant economic advantages over similar size single screen theatres as they are entitled to entertainment tax exemptions based on certainsriteria in some states.

The key economic advantages are as follows

ƒ Better Occupancy

Multiplexes have multiple screens, with different seating capacities. The multiplex operator can choose to show a movie in a larger or a smaller theatre, based on its expected potential. This enables the Multiplex operator to maintain higher capacity utilization, as compared to a single screen. Multiplex enjoys an average of 50-60 percent occupancy per screen as opposed to 30-35 percent of standalone theatres

ƒ Greater Number of Shows

Each film has a different screening duration. Since multiple films are available for screening, the multiplex operator has the flexibility to decide on the screening schedule so as to maximize the number of shows in the multiplex, thus enabling it to generate higher number of patrons.

ƒ Better Exploitation of Films

Typically, a Film has a large audience in the first week of release. A multiplex operator could therefore commence screening by showing the film on multiple screens in the first week, then gradually reduce it to one screen and finally move it to the smallest seating hall with the complex. This enables better exploitation of the revenue potential of the film.

ƒ Better Cost Management

A multiplex complex benefits from a set of shared facilities such as concession stands and entertainment products, which results in better cost management.

ƒ Tax Rebates

The government has accorded various tax rebates for multiplexes.

ƒ Dynamic Ticket Pricing

After blazing through the big cities, the multiplex revolution is now sweeping through small towns in the country. The concept of multiplex has received almost identical overwhelming response irrespective of culture, caste, creed or colour of the state and its residents hence, whether the state is Maharashtra or Gujarat or Karnataka or New Delhi or Rajasthan or Madhya Pradesh, multiplex has now become first choice of cinemagoers. Buoyed perhaps, by the high returns associated with multiplexes in metros over the last decade, the last few years have seen a number of players in the entertainment business coming up with multi-screen cinemas, in cities like Ghaziabad, Meerut, Kanpur, Indore, Faridabad, Jamnagar and Ludhiana. A sudden splurge in stylish multiplexes in these small towns has broadened entertainment options for viewers in these places, which earlier had to contend with watching movies either in the existing single- screen theaters or on a DVD player.

Various state governments have framed specific policies for multiplexes and their development which include tax holidays, tax deferments, other attractive commercial incentives and financial concessions. These are very good signs so far as the future growth of multiplexes in India is concerned.

Around 30 percent of the films generate 90 percent of the industry revenues. This is not surprising considering that out of around 150 mainstream films produced annually, 40-50 percent would not be considered financially viable in a corporatised environment. These laggards include

9 Very low budget (Category D) films with weak scripts, completely unknown cast and inexperienced producers and directors 9 Certain category AA (super budget) films that suffer due to cost overruns and a higher risk quotient and 9 Several B Grade (mid-budget) films that suffer due to a serious mismatch between the products' cost and revenue potential.

Multiplex gathers increased momentum in the categorization of films. Briefly, it can be analysed as under:

Category AA films are typically 'big banner' films. These films have a strong star cast, high level of technological sophistication and typically, socially acceptable themes. The key factor in an AA category film is that the producer and the director have a very strong track record and have the ability and the experience to complete the film on time. Category 'AA costs are assumed to range from INR 150 to 300 million. Apart from domestic theatrical and other revenues, these films have an overseas potential as well, depending on the presence of certain lead actors.

Category A films have costs that are assumed to range from INR 80-150 million. The costs cover variables like type of shoot, locations, number of shifts, the type of agreements with artists, post-production costs, capitalised interest, and so on. At the same time, they enjoy multiple cash flows on the sale of satellite rights, music rights, cable rights, internet rights and sponsorships. Generally, these films recover their costs in the first four weeks after release, unless they have been made at a disproportionately high cost.

Category B films are typically made by relatively financially weaker producers. In many cases, the completion of the film gets delayed due to the lack of last-mile finance. The producer also does not have his own sources of finance and usually taps the market for funds. Sometimes, the directors of these films have a mediocre track record with negligible past box office success to their credit. The star cast here may not be top grade and may include actors who have not been completely accepted by the mainstream audience. Often,

36 Brahma Interactive Limited these films are not completed due to lack of funds. Their costs are assumed to range from INR 30-80 million.

Category C films comprise of a heterogeneous mix of low budget, high quality content films at one end with a high profit potential, to still-born projects characterised by a lack of quality, content, and good artists fashioned on run-of-the-mill subjects, espousing mediocre music and virtually no market. Their costs are assumed to be between INR 10-30 million.

Category D films, which comprise of virtual non-starters in terms of finance, content, and technical quality, have not been included in the sample examined due to their inability to get past the approval stage in a more corporatised environment.

It should be noted that the above analysis is indicative and not comprehensive. it is intended to serve just as an illustration. It is nevertheless observed that B and AA category films have proved to be relatively more risky investments for production houses, followed by A and C category which show lesser variation in their respective returns. B category films also perform poorly in the overall returns ranking, followed by AA and A category films that share the same return characteristics, with category C films finishing on top once again. The combined ranking for both the years shows that category A and C films are better investment prospects in terms of the balance between their risk-return characteristics, followed by category AA (super budget) films and, finally, category 8 (mid budget) films which appear to be the riskiest.

Film Distribution

Film distribution is an essential part of the film value chain. Film Distributors are the ones who buy theatrical distribution rights from film producers to exhibit the film into various theatres.

ƒ Recent Trends Distribution has evolved from mass-film production. Increasing importance of multiplexes with many screens has encouraged this trend of segment-specific films. Another trend observed in the past few years is that, there has been an unrealistic increase in acquisition prices of film products for distribution. This situation is expected to get automatically corrected in near future. Apart from this there are attempts to consolidate the film value-chain to include two or more elements of the value chain i.e. Production, distribution, and exhibition. The company has a strong position in distribution and exhibition.

ƒ Corporatisation In the 1990s, the Indian film industry was completely fragmented, with no individual entity - content producer, financier, distributor, exhibitor, music company and satellite broadcaster - commanding any considerable presence across the value chain. As a result, the revenue earning capacity of any given film became a function of the relative bargaining power of the concerned parties. Consequently, creative freedom and quality of content suffered. Risk mitigation, contracts and insurance were alien terms, while time and cost overruns were commonplace. A corporatised approach to production implies and includes the following mix of initiatives or actions:

9 Intelligent selection of scripts which factors in an understanding of consumer preferences and market trends 9 Project feasibility analysis for target audience preferences, box office results talent popularity and story viability in domestic and international markets 9 Active participation and consent of each activity head at the green-lighting stage 9 Investing in equipment, technology and management information systems to bring down costs and build in flexibility in shooting schedules 9 Control over production timelines, budgets and quality with periodic monitoring

37

9 Outsourcing non-critical functions to focus on the core aspects of film- making 9 Introducing a profit sharing system thereby reducing initial risk on full upfront payment etc.

ƒ Organised film financing Till 2000, films were mostly financed through private sources, since commercial lending agencies considered the industry to be a risky and low-priority sector. The two major sources for finance were:

9 Distributors and music companies. who would pay advances to established film- makers and films with reputed star casts to acquire the theatrical/ music rights. 9 High-net worth individuals

Due to the unorganised nature of this funding and its perceived riskiness, the interest rates charged were usurious.

Curiously, despite several downturns and the apparent riskiness, private financing continued unabated, even during lean periods. This indicates that the industry was able to generate sufficient returns, despite the high financing cost. This also implies that it is quite likely that the costs of production may have been grossly overstated in the past whereas it is possible that the bottom-line for the industry may actually have been much healthier over the last few years than what it was believed to be.

Competition

Many national chains like Adlabs, PVR, Shringar etc. are expanding all over the country. The focus of this entire plan into chains in metro centric to start with and is percolating to non-metros in a slow fashion.

The company currently has Competition only from single cinema theatres, but the key players in this industry like PVR Limited and Adlabs Films Ltd. are planning to launch the multiplex in the city of Indore. This will reduce the market share of the Company.

PVR Limited will set up a Multiplex in Indore which is Five Kilometers from our Multiplex. It will be a five screen multiplex having a total seating capacity 1,180. Adlabs is launching multiplex in Indore by December 2005 with the multiplex of four screens and number of seats as 1200.

Many national chains like Adlabs, PVR, and Shringar etc. are expanding all over the country. The focus of this entire plan into chains in metro centric to start with and is percolating to non-

40 Brahma Interactive Limited metros in a slow fashion. VELOCITY on the other hand is entirely concentrating of non-metros like Indore and Bhopal where it either has first mover advantage or a large catchment area to feed the Multiplex. VELOCITY is very focused on customer services like free home delivery, internet booking, and acceptance of credit cards etc. which make the movie going experience a very convenient and pleasurable one. For the future in a competitive environment the multiplexes which offer the best services at reasonable prices shall survive and flourish.

The advent of many multiplexes chain also results in better market penetration and depth at result in better customer awareness and higher levels of aspirations which in turn drives the patrons to watch the movies in multiplexes.

Business Strategy

ƒ Based on the above analysis and considering the knowledge, experience and competence available with the promoters of VELOCITY III, they have drawn out marketing strategy for the upcoming multiplexes. The salient features of the marketing plan are as under: a. Facility of home delivery of tickets b. Facility of computerized booking and ticketing c. Customised price matrix which include differential weekend pricing and week days pricing of tickets d. Attractive events and activities round the year e. Facility of tele-booking and SMS based booking f. Facility of Internet booking through secured payment gateway g. Facility of multiple show timings – shows starting from 10.00 am to 10.00 p.m. h. Joint promos with other media partners like RADIO MIRCHI etc i. Joint promos with other international retail brands.

ƒ The Company is proposing to develop an amusement park at Shastri Park, New Delhi on the land to be leased by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Limited. In this respect the company has filed a bid in collaboration with Neha Resorts and Hotels Limited, Mumbai, which is a company promoted by internationally known RUCHI Group.

This joint venture is objectively looking for tourism and entertainment sector which it feels, constitutes the fundamental building block for any thriving economy. This sector happens to be one of the most employment generators and also has a direct impact on all the downstream industries such as Hotels, Aviation, and Infrastructure etc.

ƒ Brahma Interactive Limited operates today with three screens will strengthen the Company’s presence in the territory as it will lead the Company in a better position to deal with the distributors due to the larger coverage of cities and number of screens. It will also add impetus to the Company’s Distribution business wherein the Distribution business shall have captive and in-house screens for the movies that are being distributed by the Distribution Division. By having both exhibition and distribution business in the same banner, the Company shall have immense strength to tap the entertainment business which is a sunrise industry and on a high growth path.

ƒ Location plays a very important role for the success of the multiplex. The locations have been selected after studying the spending habits, demographics, existing facilities and total vacuum for multiplexes. The proposed locations provide huge catchment area to respond to the need for a multiplex.

Competitive Strengths 1. The promoters have rich experience of entertainment business 2. The company belongs to the well-known and reputed Bindal family.

41

3. The promoters of VELOCITY III have set a benchmark for other multiplexes in economy in capital cost and efficiency in management pre and post implementation of the project. 4. The promoters have proven record of project management skills.

Key Industry- Regulations:

For the Entertainment Industry there are state specific regulations which govern the license requirements for construction of the Multiplex. The laws for imposition of taxes on cinemas by way of Entertainment tax is also state specific.

For our Company, The Madhya Pradesh Cinemas (Regulation) Act, 1952 (the “MP Act”) and The Madhya Pradesh Cinemas (Regulation) Rules, 1972 (the “MP Rules”) is applicable for getting licences for Multiplex. MP Rules lay down specifications that cinemas must comply with right from construction of a Cinema to the precautions for unforeseen circumstances. The Company who wishes to construct a Cinema or wants to convert existing premises into a cinema should apply for attaining the “No Objection Certificate” from the licensing authority. The licensing authority will submit a report to the State Government with its recommendation after checking the application and the documents enclosed with the application.The State Government will finally decide whether or not to provide the permission. The permissions are normally valid for two years, within these two years construction period of the cinema should be completed. After the completion of construction, an application is made for the grant of cinema licence. The documents like building permission certificate, electrical installation, etc must be enclosed with the application for cinema licence. These licences are valid for a one year.

Entertainment Tax

The Madhya Pradesh Entertainments Duty and Advertisements Tax Act, 1936 (the “MP Entertainment Act”) is applicable for Entertainment Tax. The tax is levied on admission charges paid for entry to entertainments, which includes any exhibition, performance or amusement to which persons are admitted for payment. Without the payment of admission charges a person cannot be admitted to entertainment shows unless the entertainment tax for the full value of ticket has been paid. If the person is admitted without the payment of entertainment tax then the licences granted for exhibition of entertainment shows may be suspended or revoked.

The Act allows the state government to exempt any entertainment or class of entertainments from the liability to pay entertainment tax or advertisement tax. Currently, entertainment tax at the rate of 50% of the net ticket price or 33.33% of the gross ticket price is payable by cinemas in the state of Madhya Pradesh.

Under the terms of notification no. B-5-16-2000-CT-V dated October 25, 2001, the state government of Madhya Pradesh has exempted “integrated family entertainment multiplex centres” from payment of entertainment tax to the following extent:

Period of Exemption % of Exemption First, second and third year after completion of the multiplex complex, i.e., 100% first three years from the date of commercial exhibition of a movie in any of the cinema halls of such complex. Fourth year 75% Fifth year 50%

The notification specifies that the aforesaid exemption from entertainment duty shall not exceed the amount of capital investment made in the construction of the complex. Consequently, notwithstanding the five year period of relief, entertainment tax shall be payable from such date as the entertainment tax relief obtained equals the capital investment made in the Multiplex.

Grant of relief from payment of entertainment tax is also subject to compliance with the following conditions:

47

• The multiplex shall compulsorily be run for an additional period for five years, after the period of grant of entertainment tax relief has expired, failing which the entire amount of exemption availed, along with interest, shall be recovered. • A minimum amount of Rs. 30,000,000 must be spent as capital investment on the project. • The project must have at least three cinema halls with a combined capacity of 1,000 spectators. • The complex must also contain a video games arcade, fast food centre, place and facility for children’s entertainment, and place for vehicle parking.

Information Regarding: a) Unusual or infrequent events or transactions:

There have been no unusual or infrequent transactions that have taken place during the last three years. b) Significant Economic changes that materially affected or are likely to affect income from continuing operations:

Government's focus on entertainment Industry will have major bearing on the companies involved in this sector. The Government’s positive outlook towards entertainment and retail supports the Company and such support is likely to continue in the foreseeable future. c) Known trends or uncertainties

92 Brahma Interactive Limited

Apart from the risks as disclosed on page [•] under heading “Risk Factors” in this Draft Prospectus, there are no other known trends or uncertainties that have had or are expected to have a material adverse impact on sales, revenue or income from continuing operations. d) Future changes in relationship between costs and revenues

Increase in ticket revenues, higher per head spend and efficiencies of scale and common infrastructure shall result in suitably offsetting increase in cost, if any. e) Total turnover of the Industry

The Company’s turnover is only from one segment i.e. Entertainment. f) Status of any publicly announced new products or business segment

Introducing new products is an ongoing process in our regular business initiative. g) Extent of seasonality of business

Entertainment business is seasonal only to the extent of examinations of students which is less than two months in a year. Seasonality to such an extent applies to every business. The promoters are of the opinion that operations are not likely to be affected owing to this. h) Significant dependence on a single or few suppliers or customers

Our revenue is dependant on very large number of customers and footfalls, therefore loss of few clients would not affect revenues adversely.

The inputs are standardized and there are a lot of suppliers for the requisite raw material and therefore there is no over reliance on the suppliers. i) Competitive conditions

The Company currently faces competition only from single screen cinemas. Multiplexes, when they open in competition belong to national chains who are large sized and therefore have comparatively larger overheads. Also more Multiplexes will add depth to the market and enhance the cinema going habit. The Company is also increasing its geographical reach by targeting untapped locations.

CONCLUSION:

Given the increasing movie going habit in the country and the increased spending patterns alongwith high disposable incomes in the Indian Metros and Non-Metros the Company is of the firm opinion that incremental topline and bottomline growth can be achieved by expanding our presence in other untapped locations.

The expertise of the Promoters in timely execution and running of a Multiplex shall be of key importance for the growth of the Company.
