Correct Answer: INR 6,500
Solution :
Let the principal amount be Rs. $P$
Compound Interest rate, $r$ = 20%
Time period, $T$ = 2 years
Now, the total amount after Compound Interest = Rs. 9360
So, $P(1+\frac{r}{100})^T$ = 9360
⇒ $P= \frac{9360}{(1+\frac{20}{100})^2}$
⇒ P = 6500
Hence, the correct answer is INR 6,500.
