Himanshu Pandya submits: Forbes columnist John Christy says that the case for investing in India is a no-brainer. He notes that with 4,781 domestic listings, the Bombay Stock Exchange has more stocks to choose from than any other single exchange on the planet. The New York Stock Exchange, by contrast, has about 1,800 domestic listings and the London Stock Exchange has 2,809.

For investors who prefer funds, he likes Matthews India Fund [MINDX].

John also recommended a book, 'India Unbound' by Gurcharan Das, former chief executive of Procter & Gamble’s Indian operations.
