Over the last 7 days, the Indian market has dropped 4.7%, yet it remains up by an impressive 39% over the past year, with earnings expected to grow by 17% annually in the coming years. In this context of fluctuating short-term performance and promising long-term prospects, growth companies with high insider ownership can offer potential stability and alignment of interests between management and shareholders.

Its earnings are expected to grow significantly at 58.6% annually, outpacing the Indian market's 17.2%. However, its return on equity is forecasted to remain low at 18.7%, and recent enforcement actions under GST and consumer protection laws may impact financials.
