in the year 2015***
Shall I assume that 2% p.a C.I means
2% per annum compounded instantaneously ?

the amount = 55 e^.02t
if 2005 ---> t = 0
then 2015 --- t = 10

amount = 55 e^(.02(10))
= 67.177 crores

(is 1 crore equal to 10 million?
I see one answer as 6700, but that would not match your units.)
THANKS
The answer is none of the above
Because the exact answer is 67.17 crores.
