1. Correct Answer: (a) ₹48,500 crores
2. Explanation:
     To determine the Gross Primary Deficit, we utilize the formula:
     \[ \text{Gross Primary Deficit} = \text{Fiscal Deficit} - \text{Interest Payments} \]
     Given:
     ● Fiscal Deficit = ₹50,000 crores
     ● Interest Liabilities = ₹1,500 crores
     The non-debt creating capital receipts of ₹10,000 crores are not directly involved in calculating the primary deficit. They are part of the fiscal deficit's financing but do not impact the primary deficit calculation.
     Therefore, the calculation is:
     \[ \text{Gross Primary Deficit} = 50,000 - 1,500 = 48,500 \text{ crores} \]
     Thus, the correct answer is Option A: ₹48,500 crores.

1. सही उत्तर: (a) ₹48,500 करोड़
2. व्याख्या:
     ग्रॉस प्राइमरी डेफिसिट (Gross Primary Deficit) निर्धारित करने के लिए, हम सूत्र का उपयोग करते हैं:
     \[ \text{ग्रॉस प्राइमरी डेफिसिट} = \text{राजकोषीय घाटा (Fiscal Deficit)} - \text{ब्याज भुगतान (Interest Payments)} \]
     दिया गया:
     ● राजकोषीय घाटा = ₹50,000 करोड़
     ● ब्याज देनदारियाँ = ₹1,500 करोड़
     ₹10,000 करोड़ की गैर-ऋण सृजन पूंजी प्राप्तियाँ (non-debt creating capital receipts) सीधे प्राइमरी डेफिसिट की गणना में शामिल नहीं होती हैं। वे राजकोषीय घाटा के वित्तपोषण का हिस्सा हैं लेकिन प्राइमरी डेफिसिट की गणना को प्रभावित नहीं करती हैं।
     इसलिए, गणना है:
     \[ \text{ग्रॉस प्राइमरी डेफिसिट} = 50,000 - 1,500 = 48,500 \text{ करोड़} \]
     अतः सही उत्तर है विकल्प A: ₹48,500 करोड़
