2025 revenue = 1 crore × 1.35 = 1.35 crore.
CP = 5000, MP = 7500. After 10% discount: 6750. After 5% discount: 6412.5. Profit% = (1412.5/5000) × 100 = 28.25%. Let me recalculate: 7500 × 0.9 × 0.95 = 6412.5. Profit = 1412.5. Profit% = 28.25%. Closest is 28.75% or recalculate: (6412.5-5000)/5000 = 28.25%.
Value = 500,000 × (0.95)² = 500,000 × 0.9025 = 451,250.
CP × 1.1 = 1100, so CP = 1000.
Sale price = 500 × 0.7 = 350.
Value = 10,000 × (1.08)² = 10,000 × 1.1664 = 11,664.

Answer: The selling price is ₹1020 (Option D)
After 15% discount: 2000 × 0.85 = 1700. After 10% discount: 1700 × 0.9 = 1530.
CP = 100, MP = 160, SP = 160 × 0.8 = 128. Profit% = 28%.
MP = 8000 × 1.60 = 12,800. SP = 12,800 × 0.75 = 9,600. Profit = 9,600 - 8,000 = 1,600. Profit% = (1,600/8,000) × 100 = 20%.
