MUMBAI (Reuters) - Indian shares turned negative on Friday, with the fall led by technology stocks after Wipro and Satyam Computer Services remained cautious about prospects in the near term.

At 10:45 a.m., the main BSE share index was up 0.3 percent at 13,153.44 after falling as much as 0.14 percent on the day. The index had earlier risen as much as 1.2 percent.

The 50-issue NSE index was 0.04 percent lower at 3,945.65.
