Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. A, C, B, D.

The sentence should start with the subject, "The prosperity and business acumen" in this case.

So, the first part is A.

The next part should be the noun + preposition, "The prosperity and business acumen of the great industrial and commercial houses in."

So, the next part is C.

Then, we need to add the object, which is "Mumbai and Kolkata indicate that in the commercial sector​."

So, the next part is B.

The last part must be D as it provides the remaining portion of the sentence. 

Correct sentence: The prosperity and business acumen of the great industrial and commercial houses in Mumbai and Kolkata indicate that in the commercial sector, India has a considerable potential for modernisation.
