BMC May Raise Entertainment Tax, Increasing Mumbai Movie Ticket Prices
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is considering raising the per-show entertainment tax from Rs 60 to Rs 400, which could increase Mumbai movie ticket prices by Rs 5-10. Exhibitors and producers warn that the fixed tax hike would reduce box-office revenue shares, especially affecting poorly attended shows and adding pressure on an industry still recovering from low audience turnout.
