MUMBAI (Reuters) - The BSE Sensex edged higher on Monday, marginally recovering after hitting its 2013 low in the previous session, as recent under-performers such as Larsen & Toubro Ltd rose, while DLF gained after an executive told analysts earnings would improve.

DLF Ltd shares gained 4.97 percent, while L&T shares rose 1.73 percent after falling 6.35 percent this month as of Friday's close.

The BSE Sensex rose 0.17 percent after hitting on Friday its lowest close since December 31.
