LITERATURE REVIEW
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer is the search engine giant in the Indian internet space, according to a leading web statistics tracker.
The Indian market share of IE, the world leader in browsers, has fallen down from 58.5% to 47.7% - a loss of almost 10%.
IE is losing its hold on the browser market to other browsers especially to Google’s Chrome.
POPULATION &SAMPLE DESCRIPTIONNameAge GroupOccupationInternet Usage
DATA COLLECTIONMETHODOLOGYSurvey.Convenient Sampling.
HYPOTHESISNull Hypothesis:
◦H0 : Internet Explorer’s market share is constant.
Alternative Hypothesis:◦H1: Internet Explorer’s market share
is decreasing.
FINDINGSThe Hypothesis has been tested
using two different questions asked in the questionnaire.
In both the cases Z-Test Of Hypothesis – Single Population using Sample Proportion is used.
The findings of both the tests have been described below.
Row LabelsCount of Which Internet browser
you use?
Google Chrome 61.11%Internet Explorer 6.94%
Mozilla Firefox 27.78%
Other 4.17%
Grand Total 100.00%
TEST OF HYPOTHESISFor 1ST Question’s Data
The data was collected on the basis of the Browser used by the respondents from the sample.
Observed Hypothesized
0.069 0.53 p (as
decimal)
5/72 38/72 p (as
fraction)
4.968 38.16 X
72 72 n
• H0 (NH): Internet Explorer is losing its users.
• H1 (AH): Internet Explorer is not losing its
users.
Using ‘Test of Hypothesis for Single
Population’
with Sample Proportion we get the
following results.
• Std. Error () : 0.588
• Z = 7.84
• p-value = 2.33
As the p-value is greater than the 0.05,
We Accept H0.
Conclusion:
We can say that Internet Explorer is losing
the number of users.
Row Labels Count of In future, if you are willing to change which browser do you prefer?
Google Chrome 54.17%
Internet Explorer 9 11.11%
Mozilla Firefox 27.78%

TEST OF HYPOTHESISFor 5th Question’s Data
The data was collected on the basis of the Browser the respondents wants to switch to.
Observed Hypothesized
0.11 0.48 p (as decimal)
8/72 35/72 p (as fraction)
7.92 34.56 X
72 72 n
• H0 (NH): People will switch to Other Browser.
• H1 (AH): People will not switch to Other Browser.
Using ‘Test of Hypothesis for Single Population’
with Sample Proportion we get the following
results.
• Std. Error () : 0.589
• Z = 6.28
• p-value = 1.65
As the p-value is greater than the 0.05,
We Accept H0.
Conclusion:
We can say that people may switch to any
other browser than Internet Explorer.
FINAL CONCLUSIONFrom the conclusion of both the
tests we can say that Internet Explorer is loosing its market share to other Browsers, mainly to Google Chrome which is currently the most widely used browser in India.
