Solution
Perfect competition market
Explanation:
In a perfect competition market, the price is constant regardless of the amount of output sold. The table shows that seller A offers a price of ₹10, which remains constant even when the amount sold increases from 30 to 50 units. This conduct is typical of perfect competition, in which firms are price takers and cannot affect market prices.
