Definition: Perfect competition describes a market structure where competition is at its greatest possible level. To make it more clear, a market which exhibits the following characteristics in its structure is said to show perfect competition:

1. Large number of buyers and sellers

2. Homogenous product is produced by every firm

3. Free entry and exit of firms

4. Zero advertising cost

5. Consumers have perfect knowledge about the market and are well aware of any changes in the market. Consumers indulge in rational decision making.

6. All the factors of production, viz. labour, capital, etc, have perfect mobility in the market and are not hindered by any market factors or market forces.

7. No government intervention

8. No transportation costs

9. Each firm earns normal profits and no firms can earn super-normal profits.

10. Every firm is a price taker. It takes the price as decided by the forces of demand and supply. No firm can influence the price of the product.

Description: Ideally, perfect competition is a hypothetical situation which cannot possibly exist in a market. However, perfect competition is used as a base to compare with other forms of market structure. No industry exhibits perfect competition in India.
