Mumbai, July 4 (IANS) Indian equity markets pared gains to provisionally close on a flat-to-negative note on Tuesday, as investors booked profits.

The 30-scrip Sensitive Index (Sensex) of the BSE, which opened at 31,331.21 points, closed at 31,209.79 points -- down 11.83 points, or 0.04 per cent, from its previous close at 31,221.62.
The Sensex touched a high of 31,353.46 points and a low of 31,166.37 during intra-day trade.
