Correct Answer: Option B)
Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation:
Investments times: Rajesh (12 months), Suresh (7 months), Tushar (5 months). Ratio: R : S : T = (100,000 * 12) : (150,000 * 7) : (200,000 * 5) = 12 : 10.5 : 10 = 24 : 21 : 20. Total shares = 65. Tushar’s share = (20 / 65) * 150,000 = 3,000,000 / 65 = ₹46,153.85.
