Correct Answer: 118.8


Solution : For Y7, the profit (before taxes) = 16,00,000 crore – 12,40,000 crore = 3,60,000 crore
The amount of tax paid for Y7 is calculated as:
profit × $\frac{\text{tax %}}{100}$
= $360000 × \frac{33}{100} = 360000 × 0.33$
= INR 118800 crore
Hence, the correct answer is 118.8.
