Correct Answer: Rs. 36,500
Solution : Given: A businessman imported laptops worth Rs. 2,10,000, Mobile phones worth Rs. 1,00,000 and Television sets worth Rs. 1,50,000. He had to pay 10% duty on laptops, 8% on phones and 5% on Television sets as a special case. He had to pay 10% duty on laptops, 8% on phones and 5% on Television. According to the question statements, Total duty = 10% of 210000 + 8% of 100000 + 5% of 150000 = (210000 × $\frac{10}{100}$) + (100000 × $\frac{8}{100}$) + (150000 × $\frac{5}{100}$) = 21000 + 8000 + 7500 = Rs. 36,500 Hence, the correct answer is 36,500.
