Worth of Laptops = Rs. 210000

Duty on laptops = 210000 × (10/100) = 21000

Worth of Mobile phones = Rs. 100000

Duty on Mobile phones = 100000 × 8/100 = 8000

Worth of Television sets = Rs. 150000

Duty on Television sets = 150000 × (5/100) = 7500

Total duty on all three items = 21000 + 8000 + 7500 = 36500
