Mangifera indica Linn. is the correct option. The first word denoting the genus starts with a capital letter while the specific epithet starts with a small letter and also name of the author appears after the specific epithet, i.e., at the end of the biological name and is written in an abbreviated form.

Mangifera lndica: Specific epithet starts with a capital letter and it is against the rules of binomial nomenclature.

Mangifera indica Car.Linn: The name of the author is not written following the rules of binomial nomenclature.

Mangifera indica: Name of author is missing in this option.
