CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Net investment = gross investment − depreciation = 80 − 30 = ₹50 crore.

  2. Closing capital = opening capital + net investment = 500 + 50 = ₹550 crore.

Worth noting

₹580 crore adds gross investment and forgets that ₹30 crore of the old capital wore out.
