Question

Find the odd one out from the given alternatives:

1. A. TDS
2. B. GST
3. C. VAT
4. D. DNA (Correct answer)

Correct Answer

Option D — DNA

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is DNA.

Key Points

• TDS, GST and VAT are all forms of taxation in India.
• DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid, the molecule carrying genetic information — no connection to tax.
• DNA is therefore the odd one out: three financial terms and one biological one.

Additional Information

• TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) collects income tax at the point of payment; VAT was the state sales tax that GST replaced in 2017.
• GST subsumed VAT, service tax, excise duty and several others, and is administered through the GST Council under Article 279A.
• Odd-one-out questions are solved by naming the category the majority share — here *taxes* — and testing each option against it.
