IE loses 20% marketshare in India

In my experience, most people working in IT in India, still end up using IE, either out of ignorance (they are like most other users - don't care about the browser as long as the site works) or due to Enterprise Intranet sites.

Well, to be precise India is close to the average of the rest of the world taken together, but not all the other countries and regions are equally close to that average e.g. Germany is a big user of Firefox, China are big users of IE, Russia is a big user of Opera.

It's possible that the causation is the other way round and the large internet using population of India is causing the average to be close to whatever it's value is, but I don't know if the facts back that up.

India's big difference from the world average is low Safari use and high Chrome usage (14%).

For my usage, I've found that it's really fast, crashes are isolated, and the developer tools for JS/CSS are fantastic. Good for endusers and hackers both.
