Solution

The correct option is D ₹40120
Marked Price = ₹40000

Discount % = 15%

Discount = 15100×40000 = ₹6000

So, selling price = ₹40000 - ₹6000 = ₹34000

Rate of GST = 18%

GST = 18% (9% SGST +9% CGST) of ₹34000

= 18100×34000

= ₹6120 (3060 + 3060)

Total price inclusive of GST at which the scooter is sold

= ₹34000 + ₹6120 = ₹40120
