Outlook and Valuation"We remain positive on ONGC on the back of fuel pricing reforms undertaken by the government. Clarity in gas pricing and expected resolution of the subsidy issue would be a material positive for upstream companies. We believe clarity in subsidy sharing will be the key for success in ONGC divestment which is expected soon. Moreover, ONGC also offers an attractive dividend yield of around 2.5%.
