:
D
Let the total number of shares for the month of August 2007 be x and the total profit earned in that month be Rs. Y.
The profit earned by selling one share of NTPC = 15y/10x = Rs. 3y/2x
The profit earned by selling one share of Tata = 4y/8x = Rs. y/2x
Hence option (d).
Alternately:
NTPC:profit/Share=15/10
Tata: Profit/Share=4/8
% increase in profit= (1.5 - 0.5)/0.5 = 200%
