How Much Are TCNS Clothing Co. Limited (NSE:TCNSBRANDS) Insiders Taking Off The Table?
We often see insiders buying up shares in companies that perform well over the long term. Unfortunately, there are also plenty of examples of share prices declining precipitously after insiders have sold shares. So we'll take a look at whether insiders have been buying or selling shares in TCNS Clothing Co. Limited (NSE:TCNSBRANDS).
What Is Insider Selling?
It's quite normal to see company insiders, such as board members, trading in company stock, from time to time. However, most countries require that the company discloses such transactions to the market.
We don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions. But it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing. For example, a Columbia University study found that 'insiders are more likely to engage in open market purchases of their own company’s stock when the firm is about to reveal new agreements with customers and suppliers'.

The Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, Piyush Asija, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for ₹4.5m worth of shares at a price of ₹734 each.

So it is hard to draw any strong conclusion from it.

Insider Ownership
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company.

Most shareholders would be happy to see this sort of insider ownership, since it suggests that management incentives are well aligned with other shareholders.

The fact that there have been no TCNS Clothing insider transactions recently certainly doesn't bother us.
