BSE midcap and smallcap indices ended in the green. ONGC, NTPC, Power Grid Corporation of India, SBIN, ITC and Tata Steel were the toppers in terms of volumes.

A sharp buying interest in oil and gas, IT and a few financial shares pushed the market higher, however, weakness in pharmaceutical and PSU banking counters was witnessed.

The stocks of Reliance Industries and Titan have made fresh 52-week high prices on Tuesday.

Reliance Industries market cap neared Rs 17.5 lakh crore as shares hit a record high. Reliance Industries shares surged to a new record high on Tuesday, cementing the conglomerate's position as India's most valuable company.

According to analysts, hopes of strong September quarter earnings, which will start with IT giant TCS and continuation of dovish monetary policy from the Reserve Bank of India lifted investors' sentiment in today's trade.
