BSE Sensex and NSE’s Nifty 50 reversed losses and hit new record highs on Tuesday led by Reliance Industries ahead of the Reserve Bank of India’s monetary policy decision tomorrow.

The broad-based NSE Nifty too closed at fresh record high of 11,356.50, up by 36.95 points or 0.33 per cent. The 50-share index extended its record-breaking run for the fourth day.

A recovery in rupee, unabated buying by domestic institutional investors (DIIs) and encouraging earnings by blue-chips contributed to the uptrend, brokers said.
