Answer : [B]
Explanation :
 
Par value of 12000 shares = Rs. (12000 x 10) = Rs. 120000
 
Dividend received by Shyam = Rs.  
15
100
 x 120000      
 
  = Rs. 18000      
 
Let the market value of 12000 shares be Rs. x.
 
We have to find x such that 10% of x = 180000
 
 
 
10
100
 x x = 18000
 
 x = 18000 x 10 = 180000      
 
i.e. Market value of 12000 shares = Rs. 180000.
 
Hence, the market value of one share = Rs.  
180000
12000
   = Rs. 15.
