Abstract
Presents a U.S.-based investor who had taken a minority position in a publicly owned manufacturer in India. The company's controller is not performing and the stock price is suffering because of delayed and disappointing results. Removing the controller, however, is proving difficult because he is related to the company's founder. What approaches can the investor take to deal with the situation?
