Epic Browser:

Epic browser is the first ever Indian browser and the first product from the Indian software company Hidden Reflex. It is based on open source browser technology, Mozilla. So it is fast and reliable. It is available for download at Epic website and is completely free. It costs just a download of 10.6 MB and installs in just few minutes.

At the first look, I fell in love with Epic and surprised by its features. It has lots of features. Like Mozilla Firefox, it is easy to use and fast. If you have experience in using Mozilla then you can easily use Epic also. But Hidden Reflex has combined many small applications into the browser, which are really helpful. Here is the first look at the browser after installing it.
