सरकारी बँक या नात्याने भारतीय रिझर्व बँक विविध कामे पार पाडते. खालीलपैकी कोणत्या कामाचा त्यात समावेश होत नाही ?
This MPSC previous-year question is drawn from MPSC Group B Combined Pre 2026 (Marathi). It belongs to the Economics section and is reproduced here in Marathi exactly as it appeared in the official Maharashtra Public Service Commission paper, along with the four options, the official Set A answer key and a compact explanation of why the correct option is correct.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
पडताळलेले उत्तर पर्याय C आहे. RBI अनेक कामे करते, पण 'शेअर बाजाराचे नियमन' त्यात नाही — ते काम SEBI चे आहे. म्हणून RBI ला न बसणारे कार्य म्हणजे शेअर-बाजाराचे.
Why this question matters
Repeat-frequency analysis of the last decade of MPSC papers shows that economics accounts for a stable 10–15 percent of every prelim. Aspirants who master this segment early free up preparation time for the more volatile subjects (Current Affairs, Environment) that require weekly refresh. That is why our editorial team places economics PYQs prominently in the topic-wise practice flow.
How to attempt this in the exam
Watch for negation traps — words like "not", "except", "incorrect" that flip the intent of the question. MPSC deliberately embeds them in economics items to catch aspirants who read the question in a hurry. Re-read the stem with a mental highlight on any negation word before selecting an option.
Subject-specific tip
Tip for Economics: connect every scheme to a launch year, the implementing ministry and the primary beneficiary. MPSC Economics options often swap the launch year or the implementing ministry — that is the easiest elimination.
Economic institutions and the fiscal machinery
Institutional economics is a MPSC favourite. The Reserve Bank of India (established 1935, nationalised 1949) with its monetary-policy toolkit (repo rate, reverse repo, MSF, CRR, SLR) is asked every year. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (1988 / statutory 1992), the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (1999), the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (2003), the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (2016) and the Financial Stability and Development Council recur in every recent paper.
Fiscal-federalism items rest on the Finance Commission (constituted every five years under Article 280) — its terms of reference, the horizontal devolution formula (population, area, income distance, forest cover, tax effort, demographic performance) and the vertical share it recommends. The Fifteenth Finance Commission's cycle (2021–26) and the sixteenth (from 2026) are examinable. The Goods and Services Tax framework — the 101st Amendment, the GST Council and its dispute-resolution role, the tax slabs (0, 5, 12, 18, 28) and the compensation cess — is also a recurring set.
For Maharashtra's economy specifically, memorise the sectoral shares (agriculture roughly 12 percent of GSDP, industry 27 percent, services 61 percent as of the last Maharashtra Economic Survey), the top three GSDP-contributing districts (Mumbai suburban, Pune, Thane) and the concentration of the state's industrial output around the Mumbai-Pune-Nashik golden triangle and the Aurangabad and Nagpur secondary clusters.
