Many investors believe that it is a good sign when companies have a high promoter holding. It indicates that the promoters are confident about the company’s future and therefore continue to hold a high stake, or increase their stake from time-to-time. However, a few companies may have low or no promoter holding if they are professionally managed.
On the other hand, high FII holding also sends a good signal to investors, as FIIs invest in companies after conducting thorough research. In fact, they have strong research teams for this purpose.
