Question
Read the sentence to find out whether there is any
grammatical or idiomatic error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The letter of that part is the answer. If the sentence is errorless, mark 'no error' as the answer. (Ignore errors of punctuation, if any). On its first day of trading, the (A)/ stock rises 51% to be the most expensive (B)/ bank in India based on price-to-book (C)/ No error (D)Solution
