How can it be, there is no any real value in number to calculate to specify with the percentage you suggest?

For Honda and Hyundai difference is nearly same.
But for Hyundai base is less than Honda.
Means less denominator and is larger.
That's it.

@Swojeena in question they ask Max percent diff. Going to answer there is only two companies near max Hyundai (250/700)*100% and Honda (250/850)*100%. Actually in fig we can't get exact values. as mine I take 50,100,150..etc..

Honda: (1100-850)/1100*100 = 22.72.
Here we used divided by 1100 is just because the sales turnover is REDUCED from 2001-02 to 2002-03. In case of Increase we divide by 850.
GM: (900-750)/900*100 = 16.6.
Maruthi: (700-650)/650*100 = 7.69.
We used divided by 650 is just because the sales turnover is INCREASED from 2001-02 to 2002-03.
HM: (1150-1100)/1150*100 = 4.34.
Hyundai: (950-700)/950*100 = 26.31 (MAX % Difference).
