Mumbai: Market showed signs of resilience as the Sensex rose by over 82 points to 26,485.28 on Tuesday after value-buying by investors offset concerns from United Kingdom's shock exit from the European Union.
Besides, short-covering ahead of June derivatives expiry on Thursday gave the upside some traction.
The 30-share barometer advanced by 82.32 points or 0.31% to 26,485.28 in early trade.
The index had ended flat by rising 5 points in the previous volatile session.
Sectoral indices led by capital goods, oil and gas, PSU, power, realty, healthcare and banking saw a lot of action, gaining up to 0.86%.
The National Stock Equity Nifty too regained the 8,100 mark by rising 29.20 points, or 0.36%, to 8,123.90 in early trade.
Brokers said value-buying in select blue-chips may have helped, but the sell-off in other Asian and European markets capped the losses.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng was down 0.71% while Shanghai Composite was quoting 0.20% lower in early session on Tuesday.
Japan's Nikkei fell 0.33%.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended 1.50% lower on Monday.
