MUMBAI (Reuters) - The BSE Sensex provisionally ended flat for a second consecutive session on Monday as software services exporters rose ahead of their upcoming earnings results although sentiment overall was broadly cautious due to the continued U.S. budget standoff.

ICICI Bank provisionally fell 1.5 percent while Tata Consultancy Services rose 3.1 percent after earlier touching a record high of 2,097.70 rupees.

The BSE Sensex provisionally ended flat, while the Nifty ended down 0.02 percent.
