Correct Answer: Rs. 81,000


Solution : Swastik purchased a laptop for Rs. 75,000.
He sold it to Anju suffering a loss of 10%.
So, cost price for Anju = $\frac{100-10}{100}×75000=67500$
Anju sold the same laptop after earning a profit of 20%.
$\therefore$ Selling price for Anju = $\frac{100+20}{100}×67500=81000$
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 81,000.
