Monopolistic Competition in a commodity market arises due to the commodity being non-homogenous. This kind of a structure is more commonly visible. The demand curve faced by the firm in this kind of market is not horizontal (perfectly elastic) as in the case with perfect competition. The demand curve faced by the firm is also not the market demand curve, as in the case with monopoly. In the case of monopolistic competition, the firm expects increase in demand if it lowers the price. We know that demand curve of a firm is also its AR curve.
