Correct answer: C. ₹760 crore

- So the combined revenue was ₹760 crore.
Answer: ₹760 crore.
The idea
Read strictly down the named column. Picking up a neighbouring year is the commonest error in table questions.
Shortcut. Pair the column: 180 + 180 = 360 and 240 + 160 = 400, so the total is 760.
Common trap. ₹740 crore — taking Delta's 160 (its 2022 figure, a number that also sits in the 2024 column as Gamma's) instead of its 180.
