Markets have turned flat after making a negative opening tracking weak Asian cues.  

By 9:20, the Sensex was down by 3 points at 19,785 mark and the Nifty declined by 5 points at 5,847 levels.

Market will also react to better-than-expected July factory output data and slowing August retail inflation data which were released after market hours on Thursday, 12 September 2013.
