Accuracy in the prediction of demand is an important task in any field of business. Prediction of the expected sales ensures the smooth working of an organization as well as helps in maintaining the balance all around the company. For a pump manufacturing company predicting demand can be a tedious task due to the involvement of the multiple factor environmental conditions. In this context, this paper focuses on the prediction of the demand using Holt Winter's model and ARIMA model and then validating their accuracy by MAPE and Theil's-U.
