B Correct answer
Explanation

Article 80 of the Constitution fixes the maximum strength of Rajya Sabha at 250 members, of which 238 are elected by states/UTs and 12 are nominated by the President. The actual strength is typically lower due to vacancies. 252 and 260 have no constitutional basis, while 240 is merely the current working strength, not the constitutional maximum.
