REUTERS - Indian shares rose on Tuesday as the good progress of monsoon rains lifted consumer goods makers such as Hindustan Unilever that depend on the rural economy, though trading volumes were thin due to continued concerns about the Brexit fallout.
The Nifty ended 0.41 percent higher at 8,127.85, while the Sensex closed 0.46 percent higher at 26,524.55.
Shares of ITC Ltd rose as much as 2.84 percent to their highest since February 2015, while Hindustan Unilever gained up to 3.62 percent.
