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

SBI Life, Power GridCorp, Dr Reddy's Laboratories and Hindalco all lost around 2 percent while automakers Bajaj Auto, Maruti Suzuki India and Tata Motors rallied 2-3 percent.

The rupee traded weak today after having climbed to a near two-month high on Monday.
