Did Sree Rayalaseema Hi-Strength Hypo Limited (NSE:SRHHYPOLTD) Insiders Buy Up More Shares?
We've lost count of how many times insiders have accumulated shares in a company that goes on to improve markedly. The flip side of that is that there are more than a few examples of insiders dumping stock prior to a period of weak performance. So before you buy or sell Sree Rayalaseema Hi-Strength Hypo Limited (NSE:SRHHYPOLTD), you may well want to know whether insiders have been buying or selling.
What Is Insider Buying?
It is perfectly legal for company insiders, including board members, to buy and sell stock in a company. However, rules govern insider transactions, and certain disclosures are required.
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.'

Insider Ownership
I like to look at how many shares insiders own in a company, to help inform my view of how aligned they are with insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Our data indicates that Sree Rayalaseema Hi-Strength Hypo insiders own about ₹311m worth of shares (which is 12% of the company). However, it's possible that insiders might have an indirect interest through a more complex structure. Whilst better than nothing, we're not overly impressed by these holdings.

But insiders have shown more of an appetite for the stock, over the last year. It would be great to see more insider buying, but overall it seems like Sree Rayalaseema Hi-Strength Hypo insiders are reasonably well aligned (owning significant chunk of the company's shares) and optimistic for the future.
