C Correct answer
Explanation

Gujarat produces approximately 60% of India's salt, primarily from the Little Rann of Kutch and coastal areas. The state's favorable climate, extensive coastline, and large salt-affected lands make it ideal for salt production through solar evaporation. Rajasthan has significant salt deposits but Gujarat dominates production.
