1. Secant formula was used in an earlier version of IS:800 prior to 1984.
2. IS:800-1984 recommended Merchant-Rankine formula.
3. IS:800-2007 recommends the Perry Roberston formula (see clause 7.1.2.1, pg no-34 of IS:800-2007).

According to Indian standard, it is Perry Robertson and according to British, it is Secant formula.

The version of IS 800 before 1984, it was Secant formula for Indian standard.

In the 1984 version, it was Merchant Rankine formula.

But the latest version, in IS 800 2007, it is Perry Robertson formula. Therefore the correct answer is E.
