Read the sentence to find out whether there is any
grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the part with the error as your answer.

The company announced yesterday (A) / that it expands its operations (B) / to several Southeast Asian countries (C) / by the end of this year. (D) / No error (E)Solution
Since the reporting verb "announced" is in the past tense, the verb in the subordinate clause should also follow the sequence of tenses. "Expands" (present tense) should be replaced with "would expand" (future-in-the-past tense).
Correct sentence: The company announced yesterday that it would expand its operations to several Southeast Asian countries by the end of this year.
