Insider Ownership Of Infibeam Avenues

The definition of company insiders can be subjective, and does vary between jurisdictions. Our data reflects individual insiders, capturing board members at the very least. The company management answer to the board; and the latter should represent the interests of shareholders. Notably, sometimes top-level managers are on the board, themselves.

I generally consider insider ownership to be a good thing. However, on some occasions it makes it more difficult for other shareholders to hold the board accountable for decisions.

Our most recent data indicates that insiders own the majority of Infibeam Avenues Limited. This means they can collectively make decisions for the company. That means insiders have a very meaningful ₹71.47b stake in this ₹120.31b business. Most would be pleased to see the board is investing alongside them.
