(Reuters) - Stock index provider MSCI Inc is considering changing its rules that could allow shares of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd [IPO-BABA.N] and other companies that list their shares in markets away from their home base to be included in its widely used indexes. Under MSCI's rules, a company cannot be included in its popular Global Investable Markets indexes if it is based in one region and its shares are listed in another region. Because China's Alibaba is listing in New York, it would be excluded from big MSCI indexes. Below is a list of companies that could join major global MSCI indexes if the rules change: Company Ticker Market Cap# (in $ billion) Baidu Inc 77.14 Jardine Strategic Holdings 41.78 Jardine Matheson Holdings 42.67 JD.com Inc 39.81 Prada SpA <1913.HK> 17.99 Hongkong Land Holdings 16.21 Vimpelcom Ltd 15.04 Dairy Farm Int'l Holdings 13.86 Thai Beverage Pcl 14.71 Check Point Software 13.56 Technologies Ltd Vipshop Holdings Ltd 11.89 NetEase Inc 11.59 Polyus Gold Intl Ltd 9.23 Ctrip.Com Intl Ltd 8.81 Qihoo 360 Technology Co Ltd 10.04 United Company Rusal Plc <0486.HK> 9.33 X5 Retail Group NV 5.33 Ternium SA 5.29 Eurasia Drilling Co Ltd 4.41 Samsonite International SA <1910.HK> 4.63 Damac Real Est Development Ltd 4.35 Mail Ru Group 6.27 Genpact Ltd 3.68 L'Occitane Intl SA <0973.HK> 3.46 New Oriental Education & 3.54 Technology Group Inc Bitauto Holdings Ltd 3.57 Soufun Holdings Ltd 4.46 Sina Corp 3.17 Icon Plc 3.46 Jumei International Holding Ltd 3.98 Total 413.26 # Market capitalization based on Sept. 11 close SOURCE: MSCI and Reuters data (Compiled by Neha Dimri in Bangalore)
