The Indian bourses are much better in many ways. There are just 893 companies listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, compared to 4,909 companies listed on the BSE and more than 2,500 stocks traded every day. Indian markets by comparison are much more advanced compared to their Chinese counterparts, which are still planning to introduce index futures trading. In India, we not only have index futures but also index options, stock futures and stock options apart from several sectoral indices.

China is a real giant when it comes to consumption of commodities. It consumes 34 per cent of the world's steel, 29 per cent of zinc, 28 per cent of aluminium and 25 per cent of copper. It also produces 36 per cent of the world's steel, 32 per cent of zinc and 30 per cent of aluminium. As a result, if China catches cold, the world sneezes. Earlier this month, when China closed down a few smelters to improve the quality of air in and around Beijing ahead of the Olympics, aluminium prices raced to an all-time high. Indeed Chinese companies are smaller in number; they are huge by Indian standards. The IPO of the Industrial and Commercial bank of China, which came in October 2006, was a mammoth at $21 billion and the largest the world had ever seen. The largest we have had in India was Reliance Power, which raised just $2.9 billion.
