Sensex rises by 75.71 points

In another day of listless trading, the BSE benchmark sensex snapped its last three-session of losing string and rose by nearly 76 points to log its about 5-month closing high of 17,633.45 on late buying in key stocks and sustained capital inflows. The Bombay Stock Exchange 30-share barometer resumed almost stable and moved in a narrow range till late afternoon deals, but buying at the fag end pushed the sensex up by 75.71 points or 0.43 pct to end at 17,633.45, level not seen since March 15, 2012 when it was settled at 17,675.85.  The broader NSE 50-issue Nifty also rose by 27.50 points or 0.52 per cent to finish at 5,347.90.
