Detailed Solution

$N$ pole moves closer to coil $C D$ and $S$ pole moves closer to coil $A B$ on rotation of magnet.

According to Lenz's law, $N$ pole should develop at the end corresponding to $C$ .

$∴$ Induced current flows from $C$ to $D$

Also $S$ pole should develop at the end corresponding to $B$

$∴$ Induced current flows from $A$ to $B$ .

Therefore the answer is (1)
