Tubelight has recorded the 8th highest Monday ever but considering it was a national holiday and that coming post Ramadan it should have been higher up the chart. It should have got in the top five and if the weekend had been that blockbuster one then a top two position was assured. The collections are less than half of Bahubali - The Conclusion whose Monday did not fall on a national holiday but its probably better not to compare Tubelight or any other film in the last 15 years with that as its on a different planet. A better comparison would be Krrish 3 as that was released pre Diwali and jumped big on the national holiday which came post Diwali recording close to 30 crore nett.  Below are the top ten first Monday collections of all time.

1. Bahubali (Hindi) - 39.81 crore (Partial Holiday, Enhanced Ticket Rates)
