Solution

The correct option is A
710

Total investment = ₹20306
Face value of 1 share = ₹26
Premium on 1 share = $10 %$ of ₹26 $= R s (\frac{10}{100}) \times 26 = ₹ 2.6$
Market value of 1 share = ₹ $(26 + 2.6)$ = ₹28.6

The number of shares bought by the person $= \frac{Total investment}{Market value of 1 share}$
$= \frac{20306}{28.6} = 710$
