Directions (1-10): Read the following passage
carefully and answer the questions given below it.
The week gone by induced further pessimism in the
market, as the benchmark indices saw deep cuts amid
concerns over financial health and liquidity crisis in
the NBFC sector, rising oil prices and a fast
weakening rupee. The BSE Sensex dropped 417.95
points, or 1.20 per cent, for the week to settle at
34,315 on Friday, while the Nifty50 tanked 168.95
points, or 1.61 per cent, to end at 10,303. Friday‟s
selloff wiped off Rs 1.60 lakh crore of equity
investors‟ wealth.
Even some solid earnings numbers from blue chip
firms like Reliance Industries NSE -4.34 % and
Infosys failed to lift the mood. Sustained capital
outflow has created a gloomy atmosphere, dealing a
body blow to risk-appetite. Every rise in market is
meeting with a wave of profit-booking. Overseas
investors have pulled out roughly over Rs 20,000
crore from the domestic markets so far in October.
Going into a new week, things do not look any better.
Going by analyst observations, here is a list of factors
that will influence market movement next week. A
perceived liquidity crisis in the non-banking financial
companies (NBFCs) has made investors wary despite
a slew of measures from the government and RBI to
address the issue. After the IL&FS crisis, even the
slightest indication of problem in an NBFC has led to
a selloff. “RBI is trying to inject liquidity, but
confidence needs to be restored in the system to
ensure that it continues to function,”
SudipBandyopadhyay, group chairman,
InditradeBandyopadhyay, group chairman, Inditrade
Capital, said in an interview with ET Now. “If the
liquidity crunch is allowed to continue unabated, it
may lead to solvency issues and that will be
disastrous. We will have to see how that gets handled
over the next 10-15 days,” he said. The efficacy of
RBI‟s decision to relax liquidity norms and allow
more banks lending to NBFCs will be assessed in the
coming days.
October series futures and options will expire on
Thursday and rollover of positions will dominate
proceedings through the week. “Friday's data showed
maximum Put open interest was at 10,000 followed
by 10,200, while maximum Call OI was at 11,000
followed by 10,600,” said ChandanTaparia of
MotilalOswal Securities. “There was meaningful Call
writing at 10,400 followed by 10,600, while Put
writing was seen at 10,200 followed by 10,100. The
option band signified a trading band between 10,200
and 10,500 levels. On Friday, Nifty futures closed in
the negative at 10,314 with a loss of 1.24 per cent,”
he said. F&O rollovers may increase volatility in the
market.
The rupee settled 29 paise higher at 73.32 against the
dollar on Friday, amid selling of the US currency by
exporters and foreign fund inflows. The domestic unit
has been on a bumpy track of late owing to unstable
crude oil prices, a stronger dollar, capital outflow and
rising bond yields in the US. The rupee will remain a
key factor to watch in the coming days.
Crude oil prices rose in international markets on
Friday. Brent crude futures rose 49 cents to settle at
$79.78 a barrel amid a surge in demand in China. The
market is now focussing on US sanctions on Iran,
which will come into force on November 4. Crude
has a direct impact on the rupee‟s health and
ultimately it influences the mood of the market, as
higher crude oil prices raises worries of a spike in
current account deficit and fiscal deficit, distorting
country‟s macroeconomic mathematics. As per RBI

estimates, every $10 a barrel rise in oil price reduces
country‟s GDP growth by around 0.15 per cent.
The earnings season is on in full swing now. ITC,
Asian Paints, Adani Ports, Ambuja Cements, Kotak
Mahindra Bank, YES Bank, Maruti Suzuki,
BhartiAirtel, BhartiInfratel, Wipro, HCL Tech, Bajaj
Auto, Bajaj Finance and Bajaj Finserv are among the
heavyweights that will release their September
quarter numbers during the we during the week. The
earnings numbers have been mixed so far. Any
positive surprise should prove a booster dose for the
market.
The European Central Bank (ECB) will announce its
interest rate decision on Thursday amid chaos around
BREXIT. While no change in monetary policy is
expected as of now, the ECB will have to calculate
the risk that BREXIT poses to eurozone economy.
“BREXIT is the big elephant in the room for the euro
area‟s economy. A lot of people are trying to guess
the nitty-gritty of interest rate increases that are still
about a year out, but are ignoring one of the region‟s
key economic risks,” KarstenJunius, chief economist
at Bank J Safra Sarasin in Zurich, told Bloomberg.
The Bank of Japan‟s core CPI will be out on
Tuesday. The US new home sales report for
September will be out on Wednesday. Besides,
markets will closely watch third quarter GDP growth
numbers of the US on Friday. On the same day, data
on US‟s real consumer spending will also be
released. Italian budget will also be in focus this
week.
On the technical charts, the bears appear on the
driver's seat. “As per the weekly timeframe chart,
Nifty has formed a negative candle with a long upper
shadow, which indicates a sharp negative reversal
from the recent highs. The weekly RSI is also
sending out negative signals,” said NagarajShetti,
Technical Research Analyst at HDFC Securities.
Technical indicators still show more scope of
downside, though in between a short bounce cannot
be ruled out. The support for Sensex/Nifty during the
week is seen at 33,350/10,000 and resistance at
35,100/10,550. Bank Nifty would have a range of
24,150-25,860, said Vaishali Parekh, senior technical
analyst at PrabhudasLilladher.

Numbers of persons sit between J and P (when counted from left of J) is the same as the numbers of
persons sits between K and O.
O sits opposite to K. From this statement number of person sits between O and K are equal on both sides.
So in case 2a there are two persons sit between J and P when counted from left of J. If we place two person
between K and O from left of K, then the condition is not satisfied, So case 2a is eliminated.
Now the case 2b becomes,
I is an immediate neighbour of O.
Only three persons sit between I and L.
M sits exactly between I and L.
M is not an immediate neighbour of O.
Not more than four persons sit between M and L. We have two possible cases.

Let the income of the man is 1000
His expenditure =400
Thus his saving

speed of stream is y km/h
According to the question,
42/(x + 4) = 3------- (I)
42/(x - 4) = 7------- (II)
According to the question,
42/(x + 4) + 42/(x – 4) = 10
42x/(x2 – 16) = 5
42x = 5x2 – 80
5x2 – 42x – 80 = 0
By solving the equation, we get,
X = 10
Speed of still water = 10 km/hr
83) Answer: a)
Let the income of Sachin and Rahul is 11x and 6x

8x = 6000
X = 750
Thus, the income of Sachin and Rahul is Rs. 8250
and Rs. 4500
