Solution

Month                   Qualifying amount(₹)
January             =       3,580
February           =       3,580
March               =       1,580
April                  =       7,780
May                   =       7,780
June                  =        3,280
July                   =        3,280
August              =        5,910
September       =         5,910
October            =        2,690
November        =        4,190
December        =         3,240
                   Total        52,800

Interset = `(52,800 xx "R" xx (1)/(2))/(100)`

198 = `(528)/(12)"R"`

R = `(198 xx 12)/(528)`

= 4.5%.
