Given,
M.P. = ₹ 1500
Discount = 20%
Rate of G.S.T. = 18%
Discounted price = M.P. - Discount
= 1500 - $\frac{20}{100} \times 1500$
= 1500 - 300
= ₹ 1200.
G.S.T. on discounted price
= $\frac{G.S.T.}{100}$ % $\times \text{Discounted price} = \frac{18}{100} \times 1200$ = ₹ 216.
Money paid for article = Discounted price + G.S.T.
= ₹ 1200 + ₹ 216 = ₹ 1416.
Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
