This lecture explores different market structures including perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, monopoly, duopoly and oligopsony and connects these concepts with competition law. Through real cases involving cement, tyres, beer, telecom, real estate, digital platforms and LPG cylinders, the lecture shows how market structure influences competition, pricing power and business behaviour. It also introduces key provisions of the Competition law and the role of the regulatory authorities. The lecture helps students understand how economic concepts can be applied to real market situations and how competition law responds to practices that may harm competition.
