    Question

    Read the sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical or idiomatic error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence.

    C.

    C

    D.

    D

    E.

    No error

    Correct option is C

    Correct Answer: (c) C
    Explanation:
    The sentence reads:
    "The stock market is a platform where company can raise capital by issuing shares."
    · The error lies in C, where "company" should be replaced with "a company" to correctly use the indefinite article with a singular countable noun.
    Corrected Sentence:
    "The stock market is a platform where a company can raise capital by issuing shares."
    Why the other options are incorrect:
    · (a) A: No error; "The stock market is" is correct.
    · (b) B: No error; "a platform where" is grammatically correct.
    · (d) D: No error; "capital by issuing shares" is appropriate.
    Thus, the error is in C.
