This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2024 Management Question Paper (02-Sep-2024) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III

Pressman classifies software risks by what they threaten and how they can be identified: project risks threaten the plan, business risks threaten the viability of the product, and predictable risks are those that can be foreseen from earlier work.

A — Predictable Risk: such risks are extrapolated from past project experience (staff turnover, poor communication with the customer), so A-IV.

B — Business Risk: business risks include market risk, strategic risk (a product that no longer fits the company's business strategy), sales risk, management risk and budget risk, so B-I.

C — Project Risk: project risks concern budget, schedule, personnel (staffing and organization), resources and stakeholders, so C-II.

D — Past Project: the remaining use is implementation, so D-III.

The code A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II puts strategic risk under project risk; A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV and A-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II both misplace predictable risk and business risk. Only the remaining code pairs predictable risk with past project experience, business risk with strategic risk and project risk with staffing and organization.

A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III option is correct.
