Mumbai: Benchmark Sensex rebounded about 425 points to end well above the 38,000-mark Tuesday, breaking its two-day falling streak on gains in heavy-weights RIL, SBI and ICICI Bank amid persistent foreign fund inflows and positive global leads.The broader NSE Nifty too inched closer to the key 11,500 mark. A stronger rupee also supported the rally. The rupee strengthened 19 paise to 68.77 against the dollar (intra-day). Markets commenced on a strong note largely in line with a firming trend at other Asian bourses but remained range-bound as investors were cautious.
