The below code is working for me as expected.

   function toSentenceCase(inputString) {
        inputString = "." + inputString;
   var result = "";
   if (inputString.length == 0) {
       return result;
   }

   var terminalCharacterEncountered = false;
   var terminalCharacters = [".", "?", "!"];
   for (var i = 0; i < inputString.length; i++) {
       var currentChar = inputString.charAt(i);
       if (terminalCharacterEncountered) {
           if (currentChar == ' ') {
               result = result + currentChar;
           } else {
               var currentCharToUpperCase = currentChar.toUpperCase();
               result = result + currentCharToUpperCase;
               terminalCharacterEncountered = false;
           }
       } else {
           var currentCharToLowerCase = currentChar.toLowerCase();
           result = result + currentCharToLowerCase;
       }
       for (var j = 0; j < terminalCharacters.length; j++) {
           if (currentChar == terminalCharacters[j]) {
               terminalCharacterEncountered = true;
               break;
           }
       }
   }
        result = result.substring(1, result.length - 1);
   return result;
 }
