Solution

The correct option is C will not be binding on the Government
The Finance Commission is set up every five years by the President under Article 280 of the Constitution. Its primary role is to recommend how the Union government should share taxes levied by it with the states. It also lays down rules by which the centre should provide grants-in-aid to states out of the Consolidated Fund of India.
