Expansion of Supply  

Increase in Supply

Expansion of supply refers to a rise in the quantity supplied due to a rise in the price of a commodity, other factors remaining constant.

Increase in supply refers to rise in the supply of a given commodity due to favourable changes in other factors such as fall in the price of inputs, fall in tax rates, technological upgradation etc., while price remains constant.

Expansion in supply leads to an upward movement on the same supply curve due to a rise in price.

The supply curve shifts to the right of the original supply curve.
