Options:

Rs. 3500 crores

Rs. 3137 crores

Rs. 3140 crores

Rs. 3000 crores

Correct Answer:

Rs. 3500 crores

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → Rs. 3500 crores

NDP at FC = Compensation of Employees + Rent + Interest Royalty + Profit + Mixed Income of Self-Employed + Net Factor Income from Abroad

                       = 2000 + 20 30 + 40 + 50 1000 

                       = Rs. 3140 crore

Now Convert NDP (FC) to GDP (MP)

GDP (MP)NDP (FC) + Depreciation + Indirect Taxes − Subsidies

                = 3140 + 260 + 500 − 400

                 =3500 crores
