SPRL’s Athirappilly Theme Park has been visited by over 16.09 lakhs visitors in last three financial years. A significant addition in Athirappilly Theme Park was the introduction of Kerala’s first indoor snow park under the brand name “Snow Storm” in the year 2017, spread over approximately 10,000 square feet and maintained at -10°C (Source: Care Report). Snow Storm is a standalone attraction of its Athirappilly Theme Park with independent ticketing and features various snow-based experiences which are otherwise not naturally available in Kerala.
In October 2025, it has expanded r geographical footprint, through its subsidiary “Snowstorm Parks Private Limited”, by launching a new snow park at P & M Hi-Tech city center mall in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand and are also in the process of setting up a new snow park and family entertainment center at Omaxe Hazratganj Mall in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh which will be tentatively operationalize by fourth quarter of fiscal year 2027. In addition to amusement cum water park and snow park at Athirappilly Theme Park, the company also operates 8 well-appointed rooms under the brand “Silver Storm Resort”, designed to offer multi-day visitor experiences. The resort comprises with a boardroom, conference facilities, a multi-cuisine restaurant and recreation zones. The integration of in-park accommodation facilities enables it to cater staycation guests and institutional group bookings.
SPRL also generates income from food and beverage (“F&B”) operations as well as direct merchandising operations at Athirappilly Theme Park and Jamshedpur Snow Park. During the Financial Year ended 2024, the Company outsourced the F&B operations to a third party, hence the cost of materials consumed for those financial years was Nil. Until September 2024, F&B operations in Athirappilly Theme Park were managed through third-party contracts, generating rental income. From October 2024, the Company transitioned to a direct billing model, and by June 30, 2025, all legacy F&B contracts have concluded. As a result, the Company started incurring the expenses and revenue in relation to the F&B outlets with effect from September 2024. These non-ticket services are a key aspect of its park management strategies, designed to offer visitors a more memorable experience. Sales of food, beverages, and merchandise create an additional revenue stream for it beyond ticket sales.
The company recorded collectively footfalls of 6.71 lakhs, 5.14 lakhs, and 4.24 lakhs for Fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 respectively. The addition of snow park and new high-thrill rides has supported growth in footfalls and average ticket value. It generates revenue through ticket sales of amusement cum water park and snow park, in-park food and beverage services, merchandise sales, resort bookings, and hosting private and institutional events. Amusement cum water park and snow park operate as a separate revenue-generating unit, contributing to incremental revenues without any substantial increase in operating overheads.
The company is currently undertaking an expansion through the development of a total to-and-fro round trip distance of approximately 1.2 km cable car (ropeway) system at Athirappilly Theme Park, expected to be operational in second quarter of Fiscal 2027. This aerial attraction is proposed to operate with separate ticketing system and connect the main amusement park to a themed “forest village” under implementation.

Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh which is expected to be operationalize by fourth quarter of fiscal year 2027. SPRL benefits from lower set-up costs in establishing amusement park at Jamshedpur and Lucknow. As per the Care Report, Expansion of amusement parks into Tier II and Tier III cities is emerging as an important growth driver for the industry in India. These regions offer significant cost advantages in terms of lower land prices, availability of labour with comparatively lower wage levels, enabling developers to acquire larger land parcels and develop expansive parks at a lower capital cost.
This enhances the long-term net revenue capacity and operational viability of amusement park projects. As of March 31, 2026, it had 375 employees on its payroll, and an additional 9 security staff on contract basis. It keeps hiring contract workers as and when needed.
