Hi Venkat,

Are you working with the WSUS server?

After checking the log you have uploaded ,it seems that the  prerequisite updates KB2729094 is not installed .Please manually install it then have a check .

Here is a link for reference of the prerequisite updates of installing Internet Explorer11.

Here is another similar symptom and the OP has resolved this issue by bypassing WSUS and checking with WindowsUpdate directly. If we are using the WSUS server and it is possible ,we can try to connect to the Windows Update to have a check .
