 (10%) Negative

(30%) Negative

(40%) Negative

Correct Answer:

(30%) Negative

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 3- (30%) Negative.

₹20,00,000 Revenue from Operations on 31.3.2020
₹14,00,000 Revenue from Operations on 31.2021

Change = Revenue from Operations on 31.3.2020 - Revenue from Operations on 31.2021
             = 20,00,000 - 14,00,000
             = ₹6,00,000 (negative)

% change = 6,00,000/20,00,000 x 100
                 = 30%
