उत्तर
When the percentage change in the quantity supplied of a commodity is exactly equal to the percentage change in its price it is known as Unitary elastic supply.
Explanation:
Unitary elastic supply occurs when the percentage change in the quantity supplied of a commodity is exactly equal to the percentage change in its price. This means the elasticity of supply (Es) equals 1, indicating a proportional relationship between price and quantity supplied.
