Correct answer: (D) Rs 20,956
Effective capital (investment × time) is used since Ishan's investment changed mid-year.
Ishan's capital = 22,000 × 4 + 28,000 × 8 = 3,12,000.
Jyoti's capital = 25,000 × 12 = 3,00,000.
Ratio Ishan:Jyoti = 3,12,000:3,00,000 = 26:25.
Total parts = 51.
Ishan's share = Rs 41,106 × 26/51 = Rs 20,956.

सही उत्तर: (D) ₹20,956
चूँकि ईशान का निवेश वर्ष के बीच में बदल गया, इसलिए प्रभावी पूँजी (निवेश × समय) का उपयोग किया जाएगा।
ईशान की पूँजी = 22,000 × 4 + 28,000 × 8 = 3,12,000।
ज्योति की पूँजी = 25,000 × 12 = 3,00,000।
अनुपात ईशान:ज्योति = 26:25।
कुल भाग = 51।
ईशान का हिस्सा = ₹41,106 × 26/51 = ₹20,956।
