The BSE Sensex rose on Tuesday for an eighth consecutive session of gains, its longest winning streak in nearly five months, on renewed optimism over Greek debt talks, while state-run banks gained on hopes of capital infusion.
The 30-share Sensex gained 0.27 per cent, marking its longest gaining streak since an eight-session rally to Jan. 27, while the 50-share Nifty finished 0.34 per cent higher.
