उत्तर

Investment by Ashutosh =Rs 58,500 

Price at which Ashutosh purchased one share = 

Rs ( 150 + 30°/o of Rs 150) =Rs (150 + 45) =Rs 195 

No. of shares purchased by Ashutosh = `58500/195`= 300 

Shares sold at Rs 215 = 1/3 x 300 = 100 

Selling price of 100 shares at Rs 215 

= Rs ( 100 x 215) = Rs 21,500 ........... (i) 

Shares sold at Rs 195 = 1/3 x 300 = 100

Selling price of 100 shares at Rs 175

=Rs (100 x 175) =Rs 17,500 ........... (iii) 

Adding ( i), (ii) and (iii), gives total money Ashutosh received by selling his shares

=Rs (21,500 + 19,500 + 17,500) =Rs 58,500 

Difference in selling price and cost price= Rs (58,500 -58,500) 

=Rs 0.

Hence, Ashutosh sold his shares at no loss or no gain.
