In the last week, the Indian market has been flat, but it has seen a remarkable 45% rise over the past 12 months with earnings forecasted to grow by 17% annually. In this context of robust growth, stocks with strong insider ownership can be particularly appealing as they often signal confidence from those closest to the company’s operations and future prospects.
