Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

K. C. Neogy chaired the First Finance Commission (1951), K. Brahmananda Reddy the Sixth (1972), N. K. P. Salve the Ninth (constituted in 1987) and Arvind Panagariya the Sixteenth, constituted on 31 December 2023. Earliest to latest this gives Neogy, Reddy, Salve, Panagariya. Panagariya is the most recent chairman, so sequences that do not end with him, or that place Salve before Neogy, are wrong.
