    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    C.I = P[(1+R/100)T - 1 ]
    = P[(1+15/100)3 - 1]
    = P[(23/20)3 - 1]
    = P * 4167/8000
    Intrest = (P * 15 * 3)/100 = 9P/20
    4167P/8000 - 9P/20 = 4536
    => (4176P - 3600P)/8000 = 453.6
    => 567P = 453.6 * 8000
    => P = 453.6 * 8000/567
    = Rs. 6400
