Here we consider a zero-inflated logarithmic series distribution (ZILSD) and study some of its properties. A modified form of ZILSD is also developed and derived several important aspects of it. The parameters of modified ZILSD are estimated by method of maximum likelihood and illustrated the procedure using certain real life data sets. Further, certain test procedures are suggested.
