C Correct answer
Explanation

After a 25% discount, the selling price is 75% of the marked price. If ₹22,500 is 75% of marked price, then marked price = 22,500 ÷ 0.75 = ₹30,000. Alternatively: selling price = marked price × (1 - discount%), so 22,500 = MP × 0.75, giving MP = ₹30,000. Option C is correct.
