A.

0.25%

B.

0.15%

C.

0.12%

Correct option is C


According to IS 456: 2000, the minimum percentage of secondary reinforcement (distribution steel) for Fe-415 grade steel in slabs should be 0.12% of the gross cross-sectional area of the slab. This ensures adequate crack control and provides secondary reinforcement to handle temperature and shrinkage stresses in the slab.
