NEW DELHI: Shares of Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) were trading in the negative territory ahead of the announcement of its December quarter earnings on Wednesday in an otherwise buoyant market.
Brokerages are expecting a negative set of numbers from IOC.

The brokerage expects a flat year-on-year (YoY) sales volumes at 20.9 million tons and higher underlying refining margins at $4.5 per barrel.
Elara Capital sees an 88.1 per cent drop in YoY EBITDA.
Sequentially, it may fall 76.7 per cent.
The adjusted net profit, as per the brokerage, may fall as much as 101.2 per cent YoY.
