Yahoo Finance Have Insiders Been Buying Thangamayil Jewellery Limited (NSE:THANGAMAYL) Shares?
It is not uncommon to see companies perform well in the years after insiders buy shares. Unfortunately, there are also plenty of examples of share prices declining precipitously after insiders have sold shares. So before you buy or sell Thangamayil Jewellery Limited (NSE:THANGAMAYL), you may well want to know whether insiders have been buying or selling.
What Is Insider Buying?
Most investors know that it is quite permissible for company leaders, such as directors of the board, to buy and sell stock in the company. However, most countries require that the company discloses such transactions to the market.
Insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing. But it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing. As Peter Lynch said, 'insiders might sell their shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one: they think the price will rise.'

Thangamayil Jewellery Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
Notably, that recent purchase by Founder Balusamy Darmini was not the only time they bought Thangamayil Jewellery shares this year. They previously made an even bigger purchase of ₹3.9m worth of shares at a price of ₹317 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, even at a higher price than the current share price (being ₹299). It's very possible they regret the purchase, but it's more likely they are bullish about the company. We always take careful note of the price insiders pay when purchasing shares. It is generally more encouraging if they paid above the current price, as it suggests they saw value, even at higher levels.
