Over the last 7 days, the Indian market has dropped 4.0%, driven by declines in every sector. In contrast to this recent dip, the market is up 40% over the past year and earnings are forecast to grow by 17% annually. In such a fluctuating environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing as they often indicate strong confidence from those closest to the business.
