In the summer the demand for coolers, refrigerators and air-conditioners is very high. You will always see smart money investing in stocks like Symphony Ltd, Bluestar, Voltas etc. Very few investors understand the importance of refrigerants gases manufacturers in share market. It is because they fail to connect the link between these chemical companies with summer. It is important to focus on companies like SRF and Navin Fluorine during summer. The reason behind choosing NFIL over SRF is the consistent performance of NFIL in the last 5 years (return of 985% in 5 yrs) and the possible upside in the year 2019. Before starting the Fundamental Analysis of NFIL let’s see some details about the company.
