Solution

The correct options are
A Availability of cheap labour
B Laws on safety and environment standards are lax
The main reason why foreign companies set up factories in India is the availability of cheap labour. Cost cutting can also be done by other means. Lower working conditions include lower safety measures which in turn saves such companies a considerable amount of expense.
