GSLV vs Long March 4B

Since we don't yet have a Space Topics forum, I decided to post here.
I just saw an article on space.com about how China was going to build the new Long March 5 series of rockets. Thinking about it, I decided to do a comparison between Chinese and Indian rockets.

Well, since I couldn't find much, I was hoping that you'll could bring something to the table with you'll about which is better: The GSLV or the Long March 4B.

For those who don't have a spaceflight background, the GSLV is operated by India, and the Long March 4B is operated by China.

Yes , both do the same job, ISRO (India) is coming with GSLV Mk - III taking off on 2008 , somewhat the design is like Ariane (please rectify my spelling mistake if any).However please provide any information regarding the measurements and other details of the two rockets.
