hi Ritesh,
Please reconsider your entire design , it might be helpful to do it now
than becoming unmanageable later.

If unavoidable, please use a metadata based approach for pre-calculating
and keeping the list of tables that you need to refresh prior to firing a
query on them (?)

Hope it helps.

regards
Devopam
