C Correct answer
Explanation

The Planning Commission was not a statutory body as it was created by an executive decision in 1950, not established by the Constitution or a statute. In contrast, the Election Commission, Finance Commission, and UPSC are all constitutional bodies established by the Indian Constitution. The Planning Commission has since been replaced by NITI Aayog.
