Hemant,
it depends on how active your OLTP database is and how your MVIEWs are defined.When there are 1000s of transactions against tables and you have defined your MViews to be REFRESH on COMMIT,then it results in a lot of overhead & contention(on the summary tables) , which the OLTP system may not be able to cope up with.

That being said,you can still define materialized views on OLTP systems, when you can REFRESH ON DEMAND or periodically when the load is light.
