Correct Answer: INR 132


Solution : Profit for Nihit = 12 × 700 = 8400 units
Profit for Amit = 7 × 300 = 2100 units
Profit for Patel = 7 × 400 = 2800 units
Ratio of their profits = $84 : 21 : 28 = 12 : 3 : 4$
Patel's profit = $\frac{4}{12+3+4}$ × 627 = INR 132
Hence, the correct answer is INR 132.
