    D 22700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the cost Price be Rs. 100 Selling Price (with GST) = 130 New Selling Price = 100 -10 = 90 ∴ Effective Discount = 130 – 90 = 40 So, SP of 90 = Discount 40 And, Selling Price of 55350 ⟶ Discount = 40/90×55350 = 24600
