How much revenue did central public sector undertakings under the Ministry of Coal earn from scrap disposal under Special Campaign 6.0?
- A.About Rs 9.79 crore
- B.About Rs 24.22 crore
- C.About Rs 53.94 crore
- D.About Rs 65.66 crore
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is about Rs 53.94 crore. Coal ministry undertakings disposed of 16,158 metric tonnes of scrap, well above the 10,909 tonnes they had projected, and the sale of that material brought the exchequer roughly Rs 53.94 crore, the largest such figure reported by any ministry that day. Option A names Rs 9.79 crore, which is the scrap revenue of the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, not of the coal undertakings. Option B is wrong because 24,222 is a measure of office space in square feet reclaimed by the indirect taxes board, not an amount of money in crore. Option D is wrong because the figure of 65,663 belongs to the same board and is in rupees, a little over sixty-five thousand, not in crore. Keep the coal figure separate from the ports figure.
