Shares of Prime Focus, backed by Ranbir Kapoor, surged 10 per cent on September 5, hitting the upper circuit at Rs 158.37 apiece, after more than a 1.5 per cent stake in the company changed hands in a large block deal, according to a CNBC-TV18 report.<\/p>\n

Around 47.5 lakh shares, representing 1.53 per cent equity stake, were traded in the block deal window.<\/p>\n

The stock has been in focus since July following the release of the teaser of the much-anticipated film Ramayana. Ranbir Kapoor is reported to have invested Rs 15\u201320 crore in Prime Focus Studio. Earlier, the company approved a preferential issue of over 46 crore shares, with Kapoor among the proposed allottees, slated to acquire 12.5 lakh shares.<\/p>\n

However, News18 could not independently verify whether the actor has acquired these shares so far.<\/p>\n

Founded by Namit Malhotra in 1997 in a Mumbai garage, Prime Focus expanded globally with the acquisition of UK-based visual effects house Double Negative (DNEG) in 2014. DNEG has since won multiple Academy Awards, including for TENET, Dune: Part One, and Dune: Part Two, bringing its Oscar tally to eight. Prime Focus today is known for its visual effects, animation, production, and post-production capabilities.<\/p>\n

As of June 30, Namit Malhotra held 1.49 crore shares, equivalent to a 4.81 per cent stake, based on NSE shareholding data.<\/p>\n

Prime Focus has delivered a 62 per cent rally in the past six months and a staggering 300 per cent surge over the last five years. The small-cap stock currently trades at a P\/E ratio of 22.87, according to NSE data.<\/p>\n
