In the question below, are given a statement followed by three courses of actions numbered I, II and III. On the basis of the information given, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and then decide which of the following suggested courses of actions logically follow(s) for pursuing. Statement: Ikea, the world’s largest furniture retailer with 38 billion euros in annual sales, said the customs duty increase will push up costs in India and could hamper business sentiment. Trade barriers such as import duties are against ideas of a global economy and ease of doing business and will lead to higher costs in India, which is not customer friendly. Ikea said it’s still gauging the impact of the move and wouldn’t be able to comment on whether prices will be raised or not. The Swedish company’s entry marked one of the most significant overseas investments in the country.  Courses of action: I. The company imports, most of the products it sells including tableware, kitchenware and household items made of plastic, and travel bags among other items that are covered by the duty increase announced on Wednesday. Companies have said prices of air-conditioners, premium refrigerators, washing machines, shoes and suitcases will go up by 3-5% while premium imported shoes will be dearer by about 5%.  II. Ikea made its debut in India with its Hyderabad store in August and plans to expand to more locations across the country, keeping prices low as it seeks to appeal to customers in a price sensitive market.  III. India announced duty changes on 19 items including air-conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, footwear, jewelry, furniture fittings, tableware and ATF to curb the current account deficit and stem the slide in the rupee against the dollar.
