A Correct answer
Explanation

The Finance Commission is constituted by the President every five years under Article 280 of the Indian Constitution. It recommends the distribution of financial resources between the Centre and states. The quinquennial (five-year) timing aligns with the planning cycle, though the President can constitute it earlier if needed. Four, three, and two years are not the constitutional frequency.
