Select the correct conclusion based on the meaning of the highlighted word.
Statement: I will only share this information if you keep it under your hat.
Conclusion:
I. If you will not discuss this information publicly.
II. If you will not use it for your own benefit.
III. If you will buy me a hat.

Correct option is A

The idiom "keep it under your hat" means to keep something secret or confidential. (Hindi: गुप्त रखना)
Explanation:
· Conclusion I correctly conveys the idiom’s meaning — keeping information secret.
· Conclusion II (not using it for your own benefit) is irrelevant; secrecy doesn't imply ethical or selfish use.
· Conclusion III (buy me a hat) is a literal misinterpretation and completely wrong.
Example sentence:
· I’ll tell you the plan, but keep it under your hat until the meeting.
