there is high competition and very few entrants survive this stage.
2. Rapid Growth Stage – This stage witnesses a significant expansion in
sales and profit.

and steady growth rate
4. Decline Stage – Due to introduction of new products and changes in
customer preference, the industry incurs a decline in market share and
