Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Data insufficient.
Explanation:
Criteria met (from given data):
12th in commerce: 90% (meets requirement of >= 60%)
CA foundation: 341/400 = 85.25% (meets requirement of >= 65%)
Graduation: 72% (meets requirement of >= 55%)
Missing required information:
Payment of the Rs 30,000 admission fee is not stated.
Entrance-test score (70% required) is not provided.
Note on provisional admission: provisional admission is allowed only if a student satisfies all requirements except the admission fee and can pay Rs 20,000 at admission. That condition is not confirmed here.
Conclusion: Because the required information about fee payment and the entrance-test score is missing, the data are insufficient to decide whether Anushka should be admitted.
