A Correct answer
Explanation

Shrimp and prawns are called 'Pink Gold' in India due to their immense economic value as a seafood export commodity. India is among the world's largest shrimp exporters, earning billions in foreign exchange. The term reflects both their pink coloration when cooked and their precious economic worth. Salmon, lobster, and crab are valuable but don't carry this specific nickname in the Indian context.
