I have the below product table :

I want to find out the makers who produce only one product type and more than one model.
The answer is

So far, I have written this query:

It gives the below result:

My question is how to write condition to get result for 1 type only ? as writing having count(type)=1 removes maker D which is required.

Let's take a step back and first create a result table that shows how many types each maker has. That means you should group by just the maker, and not by the maker and the type.

This is the result I want, build a query to achieve it:

makernumber of types
A3
B2
C1
D1
E2

Are you guessing, Tushar, or are you testing your query against an actual DBMS? You'll find that your query does not return the result I asked Pramod to give me.

Your query likely gives me the following result:

A
B
C
D
E
