Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Section 1(5)(a) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 4 IPC) extends the Sanhita to any offence committed by "any citizen of India in any place without and beyond India", and section 1(5) also covers offences by any person on Indian-registered ships or aircraft and offences committed outside India targeting a computer resource in India.
It does not reach every person in any place outside India, and the application of the Sanhita does not depend on the offender being above eighteen or twenty-one years.
