Sensex, Nifty End Little Changed Ahead Of F&O Expiry

Indian shares fluctuated before ending on a flat note Tuesday, as profit booking ahead of the derivative expiry and the Republic Day holiday on Thursday offset positive global cues. Investors also awaited cues from the Union Budget due to be unveiled next week.

The benchmark S&P/BSE Sensex ended the session up 37.08 points, or 0.06 percent, at 60,978.75, while the broader NSE Nifty index settled marginally higher at 18,118.30.

Financials led losses, offsetting gains in the auto and tech sectors leading to F&O expiry on Wednesday.
