Detailed explanation-1: -In case of monopoly, there is single seller and large number of buyers. Under monopolistic competition, there are large numbers of buyers as well as sellers.
Detailed explanation-2: -In monopolistic competition, we still have many sellers (as we had under perfect competition). Now, however, they don’t sell identical products. Instead, they sell differentiated products-products that differ somewhat, or are perceived to differ, even though they serve a similar purpose.
Detailed explanation-3: -What Is Monopolistic Competition? Monopolistic competition exists when many companies offer competing products or services that are similar, but not perfect, substitutes. The barriers to entry in a monopolistic competitive industry are low, and the decisions of any one firm do not directly affect its competitors.
