Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Since Hindu law does not statutorily recognise a community-property regime between spouses, 'matrimonial property' commonly denotes "Property gifted to the bridal couple at the time of marriage" (see Section 27 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955), rather than property later purchased, earned or inherited during the marriage.
