The benchmark indices rebounded on Tuesday, recouping all of the previous day’s losses, on reports of de-escalation of tensions between Russia and Ukraine. The news came as much-needed relief to equity markets which were rattled after a massive mobilisation of the Russian army around Ukrainian borders led to fears of an invasion and a standoff between the US and Russia.

The benchmark Sensex ended the session at 58,142, a gain of 1,736 points or 3.08 per cent.
