Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

First, find the total ice-cream sales in 2020 from Table-I, which is ₹8500 crore. Next, identify the market shares for Amul and Warna from Table-II: Amul has 28% and Warna has 6%. Calculate the difference in their market shares: 28% - 6% = 22%. Finally, calculate the sales difference by finding 22% of ₹8500 crore: (22/100) * 8500 = ₹1870 crore.
