Detailed Solution

Given, principal = ₹ 100000 with rate = 35%.
Compound interest for half year is given as P(1 + r200)2t - P where, P is the principal amount, r is the interest rate, and t is the time.
= 100000(1 + 35200)2(12) - 100000
= 100000(1.175) - 100000
= 117500 - 100000
= ₹ 17500
So, the interest = ₹ 17500.
Hence, option 3 is correct.
