C Correct answer
Explanation

The tertiary sector (services) has shown consistent growth in India's GDP since 1980 due to economic liberalization and structural transformation. The constant option is incorrect because India's economy has undergone significant shifts from agriculture to services. The decreasing and fluctuating options don't reflect the actual trend of service sector dominance in post-1980 India.
