The BSE benchmark Sensex recovered over 100 points on Tuesday, led by strong buying by domestic institutional investors amid positive global cues.
The 30-share index was trading 124.21 points, or 0.35%, at 35,622.65. Similarly, the 50-share NSE Nifty rose 38.90 points, or 0.37 per cent, to 10,679.85.

Investor sentiment was positive on strong buying by domestic institutional investors (DIIs), said traders.
On a net basis, DIIs were net buyers to the tune of ₹ 2,336.74 crore, while foreign institutional investors sold shares worth a net of ₹ 1,239.79 crore on Monday, provisional data available with BSE showed.
A firm trend in global equities on hopes of a resolution to the US-China trade conflict, as the next round of talks begin later in the day, too pushed domestic indices in the positive terrain, traders added.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng was up 0.03%, Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.25% higher, Kospi inched 0.01% higher, and Japan’s Nikkei gained 0.07% in early trade.
