D Correct answer
Explanation

As per SEBI regulations, listed equity shares must be valued at the last traded price on the stock exchange where the security is principally traded. This ensures fair and current market valuation. Average price (NSE) or lowest price (BSE) are not the prescribed methods. Cost price is irrelevant for daily valuation. The LTP method provides the most accurate current market value for NAV calculation.
