By setting relatively low price Tata Steel has managed to obtain large market share. The advantage of this kind of pricing is that it discourages competition since there is less opportunity to reap unusual benefits on investment. Since Tata Steel is in control of large iron ore deposits it has increased its capacity manifold and so enjoys economies of scale. It has thus maintained prices of its products lower than of its competitors and has increased the scale and efficiency of operations, since it has lower production costs.
