Solution

The correct option is A
$25 %$

Cost Price of the table (CP) $= ₹ 800$
Selling Price of the table (SP) $= ₹ 1000$
Gain Percentage (G%) $= \frac{S P - C P}{C P} \times 100 %$
Gain Percentage (G%) $= \frac{1000 - 800}{800} \times 100 % = 25 %$
Hence, the gain percentage for the shopkeeper is $25 %$ .
