Rules :
a. If market share increases for 3 years in a row, the brand is called a 'strengthening' brand.
b. If market share remains above 30% for 3 years out of a total of 5 years, then it is a 'consistent' brand.
c. If market share is failing for 3 years in a row, the brand is called a 'weakening' brand.
d. If market share drops for 2 years in a row and then rises for 2 years in a row, it is a 'relaunched' brand.
e. If market share varies by 3 points or less over the past year for 5 years in a row then it is a 'maverick' brand.
f. If in any year, 80% of, total market share is accounted for three brands, then that year is a 'year of competition'.
g. If any year, just two brands account for at least 60% of total market share, then that year is a 'consolidation year.'
Note : For 'weakening brands', fall for 3 years would mean the date should show a declining trend for 3 years from a base year.
