Finance Commissions are constituted by the President under Article 280 of the Constitution, roughly every five years, to recommend how central taxes are shared between the Union and the States and how grants-in-aid are given.
First Finance Commission: constituted in 1951 under K.C. Neogy, it made recommendations for 1952–57. The chairman and constitution year are correct.
Seventh Finance Commission: constituted in 1977 under Justice J.M. Shelat, it reported in 1978 for the period 1979–84. This combination is correct.
Eleventh Finance Commission: constituted in 1998, it reported in 2000 for 2000–05, but its chairman was Prof. A.M. Khusro. N.K.P. Salve chaired the Eighth Finance Commission (constituted 1982). This combination is therefore incorrect.
Thirteenth Finance Commission: constituted in November 2007 under Dr. Vijay L. Kelkar, it reported in December 2009 for 2010–15. This combination is correct.
Hence, 11th 1998 2000 N.K.P. Salve.
