Correct Answer

Option: c

Explanation

II in response to an order-exemption made by the Government and in consideration of the concession made available therein the promoters of any small scale concern set up their industries within the State, they would certainly be entitled to plead the rule of estoppel in their favour when the State purports to act differently withdrew the exemption-concession.
