Individual Demand Curve is the curve showing inverse relationship between Price and Quantity Demanded of Good for A consumer.
Market Demand Curve is the Curve showing inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded by all consumer in a given market. In other words Market Demand Curve is sum total of all individual demand Curve.
Let's say there are two consumer A and B in the market. A is demanding 12 unit of Good at price of 3₹, 9 unit of good at price of 5₹ and and 8 unit of good at price of 6₹. B is demanding 11 unit of goods at price of 3₹, 10 units of good at price of 5₹ and 7 unit of goods at price of 6₹.
Through Horizontal Summation, we can get Market Demand Curve. At price of 3₹, Market Demand is 23 units, ar price of 5₹ market demand is 19 and at price of 6₹ 15 units of good are demanded.
We can say that at each price market demand is higher than individual demand. That's why Market Demand Curve is flatter than Individual Demand Curve.
