Market benchmark BSE Sensex rebounded from early lows to close at a new life-time high of 37,606.58 on late buying in Reliance Industries, HUL, Infosys and Hero MotoCorp, extending its record run for the seventh day in a row.
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.
Traders were cautious ahead of RBI's monetary policy outcome on Wednesday.
