B Correct answer
Explanation

Total cost = Rs 4096. First part (1/6): Rs 682.67, sold at 12% profit → Rs 764.67. Second part (1/3): Rs 1365.33, at 9% profit → Rs 1488.67. Third part (25%): Rs 1024, at 10% profit → Rs 1126.40. Remaining (25%): Rs 1024. For no profit/loss, selling price = Rs 4096 - (764.67 + 1488.67 + 1126.40) = Rs 716.26. Loss% = (1024 - 716.26)/1024 × 100 = 30%.
