Clicking on the web link app will open

I am trying to build an application where if I click the link my app(if installed) will open.But it's not working,don't know why.It's always redirecting to google.com

My manifest file 

<activity   android:name=".DeeplinkingActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:exported="true"
            android:launchMode="singleTop"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.NoActionBar">
            <intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name">
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
                <!-- Accepts URIs that begin with "http://example.com/soham" -->
                <data android:scheme="http"
                    android:host="example.com"
                    android:pathPrefix="/soham" />
                <data android:scheme="http"
                    android:host="www.example.com"
                    android:pathPrefix="/soham" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

My test.html

<a href="intent://scan/#Intent;scheme=http;package=soham.com.deeplinking;S.browser_fallback_url=http%3A%2F%2Fgoogle.com;end"></a>

I think the problem is in the html file.Any help?

Your link is incorrect, you are using the host of the Android Intents with Chrome example. You need to use the host and pathPrefix configured in the AndroidManifest.xml.

Your host is example.com and your pathPrefix is /soham, the link will become:

<a href="intent://example.com/soham#Intent;scheme=http;package=soham.com.deeplinking;S.browser_fallback_url=http%3A%2F%2Fgoogle.com;end">Deeplink</a>

Try this: This is working for my app:

NOTE: write below code within your launcher activity tag

<intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <!-- Accepts URIs that begin with "example://WRITE YOUR HOST NAME” -->
            <data
                android:host="index.html"
                android:scheme="WRITE YOUR HOST NAME" />
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <!-- Accepts URIs that begin with "http://example.com/WRITE YOUR HOST NAME” -->
            <data
                android:host="WRITE YOUR HOST NAME.com"
                android:pathPrefix="/index.html"
                android:scheme="http" />
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <data android:scheme="WRITE YOUR HOST NAME" />
        </intent-filter>
