China unveiled its fifth exhibition on machinery, motors, home appliance and consumer electronics in India's business hub Mumbai Thursday in a bid to promote bilateral trade.

The three-day annual event draws 109 companies and around 200 exhibitors and has more than 3,000 square meters of coverage in Bombay Exhibition Center, said a release by the organizers.

Included are motors, plastic, packaging and printing machinery, machine tools, engineering machinery, home appliance and consumer electronics.

"We hope this exhibition turn into a platform where companies from India and neighboring countries could get to know Chinese enterprises and products and conduct purchase and negotiation," said Wu Tongbiao, vice head of Trade Development Bureau with China' s Ministry of Commerce.

Chinese exhibitors also could use this event as a channel to study Indian and surrounding markets, said Wu.

Chandrakant Salunkhe, president of Small and Medium Business Development Chamber of India, stressed the usefulness of innovation products exhibited here for Indian companies and called on both sides to shake off language barriers to boost bilateral business.

Local visitors are attracted to the interactive whiteboard, video glasses, quran reader pens, interactive TV games, water- powered clocks and many other industrial products.

The trade volume between China and India has seen fast growth in recent years and reached 61.7 billion U.S. dollars in 2010, with China as one of Indian leading import partners.
