C Correct answer
Explanation

Since this is a notice about a future picnic, the charges need to be stated in the future tense. 'The charges per head will be Rs. 1500' is the correct future tense form. 'Would be' is conditional, 'have to be' suggests obligation, and 'shall be' is overly formal for this context.
