Ten thousand rupees is a large sum for a student.
Correct Answer: Ten thousand rupees is a large sum for a student.
Sentence (c) is incorrect: the collective noun "committee" is followed by the singular pronoun "its", so the verb must be singular — "was divided". Correct: "The committee was divided in its opinion." Trap: option (d) looks suspicious but is perfectly grammatical — a sum of money taken as one amount takes a singular verb.
