Correct Answer: 0.864 crore


Solution : Annual expenditure = Rs. 72 crore
Expenditure on miscellaneous = 24% of annual expenditure
= $\frac{24}{100}×72$
= 17.28 crore
Spent on research of nanotubes = 5% of miscellaneous
= $\frac{5}{100}×17.28$
= 0.864 crore
Hence, the correct answer is 0.864 crore.
