Mumbai, July 1
The Indian stock markets ended on a flat note with a slight positive bias on Tuesday, as investors remained cautious ahead of the US reciprocal tariff deadline on July 8.
The focus remained on trade negotiations between India and the United States, amid the possibility of a trade deal likely this week.

Among the 30-share index, the top gainer was BEL, which closed the intraday trading session 2.51 per cent higher.
Other notable gainers included Asian Paints, Kotak Mahindra Bank, HDFC Bank, Infosys, Titan, and Bharti Airtel.
On the flip side, the top losers were Axis Bank, Trent, Eternal (formerly Zomato), Tech Mahindra, ICICI Bank, TCS, and others.
The broader market showed mixed signals. The Nifty Midcap100 index closed flat, while the Nifty Smallcap100 index slipped slightly, down by 0.10 per cent.
