Avoid OMCs; prefer defence and summer plays: Chola Securities
Dharmesh Kant, Head of Research at Chola Securities, says oil marketing companies remain largely avoidable as they are cyclical, commodity-linked businesses with limited long-term wealth creation potential, especially as renewable energy gains share.

Kant also sees corrections in InterGlobe Aviation as a potential long-term buying opportunity despite near-term volatility.
