Correct Answer: $11 \frac{1}{9} \%$


Solution : Initial salary = INR 8100
Increased salary = INR 9000
Percentage increased =$\frac{\text{Initial salary} - \text{Increased salary}}{\text{Initial salary}} \times 100$
So, the required percentage
= $\frac{9000 - 8100}{8100} \times 100$
= $\frac{900}{8100} \times 100$
= $\frac{100}{9} \%$
= $11 \frac{1}{9} \%$
$\therefore$ The percentage increase in his salary is $11 \frac{1}{9} \%$
Hence, the correct answer is $11 \frac{1}{9}\%$.
