Options:

₹796 crores

₹728 crores

₹700 crores

₹750 crores

Correct Answer:

₹796 crores

Explanation:

The correct answer is option (1) : ₹796 crores

Step 1: Calculate $NDP_{FC}$ : NDPFC is the sum of all incomes earned within the domestic economy (Rent, Profits, Interest, Mixed Income, Wages and salaries, Employers' contribution to social security schemes).

$NDP_{FC}$ =Rent+Profits+Interest+Mixed Income+Wages and salaries+ Employers' contribution to social security schemes

$NDP_{FC}$ = 100+225+40+150+200+50=765 crores

Step 2: Calculate $GDP_{FC}$ from $NDP_{FC}$ :

$GDP_{FC}$ = $NDP_{FC}$ + Consumption of Fixed Capital

                     = 765 +34

                     = 799 Cr

Step 3: Convert $GDP_{FC}$ to $GNP_{FC}$:

$GNP_{FC}$= $GDP_{FC}$ + Net Factor Income from Abroad

                    = 799 - 3

                    = 796 cr
