We have used several criteria when tracking and evaluating brands for the TolMol Top 5 AC Brands in India. Besides leading in market share, the winning brands must demonstrate the key traits of a market leader — setting trends, improving quality standards, pursuing technology innovations, offering wide choices, competing on prices, etc. “Our ranking initiative is in alignment with the mission of TolMol – to help consumers make informed decisions. TolMol considers both quantitative as well as qualitative factors in arriving at the brand ranking in various shopping categories.
