dc.description.abstract	Chemistry is the biggest area of research in which India publishes and it is the second biggest for China in recent years. Within this broad research area, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) is India’s biggest single academic research contributor,while the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) is China’s biggest player. In this communication, we use field-normalized bibliometric indicators from the latest (2013) release of SCImago Institutions Rankings World Reports to show that while the leading institutions from CSIR are showing a declining trend in the quality of research output, their counterparts from CAS are rapidly improving on both quality and quantity terms.	en_US
