Now there are two exchange-traded funds that invest in India. PowerShares India Portfolio (symbol PIN) began trading yesterday, on the heels of WisdomTree's India Earnings (symbol EPI) on February 22. The PowerShares fund, which charges an annual fee of 0.78 percent, tracks 50 companies selected from a universe that includes stocks on India's National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange. The WisdomTree fund, with a 0.88 percent expense ratio, is tied to an earnings-weighted index of 150 Indian companies.
