We consider the partially linear multiplicative model with monotonic constraint for the analysis of positive response data. We propose a constrained least product relative error (LPRE) estimation procedure for the model by means of B-spline basis expansion. We have also established asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators under regularity conditions. We finally provide numerical simulations and a real data application to assess the finite sample performance of the developed methodology.
