One more ETF that can really make a huge difference is :HangSNGBees : Investing in Chinese stock index Hang Seng. HangSNGBees is India's first International ETF. This is a real diversification to portfolio.

1 Share of Hang Seng Bees = 1/100th of Hang Seng Index converted in Indian Rupee.
For eg: as on 18-Mar-2010, Hangseng index trades @ 21450.
1 Yuan (chinese currency) = Rs.6.67 INR
Hence converting 21450 to INR would give you = 21450*6.67 = 1430715.
1/100th of this coverted value is the unit price of HangSNGBees = Rs.1430.
