Correct Answer: INR 4.2 crore


Solution : Amount of interest on the loan = INR 2.45 crore
The expenditure on the interest on the loan = 17.5% of total expenditure
17.5% of total expenditure = INR 2.45 crore
Total expenditure = $\frac{2.45}{17.5}$ = INR 14 crore
Total amount of expenditure on an advertisement, taxes and research and development
= (15 + 10 + 5)% of total expenditure
= 30% × 14 crore
= INR 4.2 crore
Hence, the correct answer is INR 4.2 crore.
