Price ceiling:
A price ceiling is a govt-imposed barrier on the competitive price level of the economy. When govt thinks that the competitive market-clearing price is too high and buyers are getting exploited, it steps in and imposes a ceiling below the equilibrium level. Producers are prevented from charging higher prices than this ceiling.
