Detailed Explanation & Answer
Total expenditure in 2012 = ₹ 30864 crores

Percentage of fertilizer in 2012 = 17.5%

Fertilizer expenditure in 2012 = 17.5% of 30864 = 0.175 * 30864 = ₹ 5407.2 crores

Total expenditure in 2022 = ₹ 70698 crores

Percentage of fertilizer in 2022 = 28.8%

Fertilizer expenditure in 2022 = 28.8% of 70698 = 0.288 * 70698 = ₹ 20392.64 crores

Expenditure increase = 20392.64 / 5407.2 = approximately 3.77 times

So, the correct option, considering the context, is 277.
2012 में कुल व्यय = ₹ 30864 करोड़

2012 में उर्वरक का प्रतिशत = 17.5%

2012 में उर्वरक व्यय = 17.5% का 30864 = 0.175 * 30864 = ₹ 5407.2 करोड़

2022 में कुल व्यय = ₹ 70698 करोड़

2022 में उर्वरक का प्रतिशत = 28.8%

2022 में उर्वरक व्यय = 28.8% का 70698 = 0.288 * 70698 = ₹ 20392.64 करोड़

व्यय में वृद्धि = 20392.64 / 5407.2 = लगभग 3.77 गुना

इसलिए, सही विकल्प संदर्भ में 277 है।
