ABSTRACT
Data collection through surveys is a formidable task in developing countries. Almost two-thirds of respondents reported research articles based on survey data in developing countries with an average response rate of 69%. It is essential to focus on methodologies to reduce the nonresponse rate. The new generalized dual to exponential ratio type estimator for the finite population mean in the presence of nonresponse is proposed. In this regard, the nonresponse is observed in the study and auxiliary variables with the methodology of Hansen and Hurwitz
