The correct answer is

1996

To determine which year exhibited the 2nd highest growth percentage in FDI into India, we need to examine the year-over-year percentage growth of FDI figures. Assuming the FDI values for the years in question, follow these steps:

  1. Calculate the percentage growth from one year to the next. The percentage growth from Year 1 to Year 2 is given by:
    Growth%=((FDIYear2)-(FDIYear1)(FDIYear1)×100%
  2. Perform this calculation for each year-to-year transition visible in the bar diagram.
  3. Sort these growth percentages to identify the second highest.
  4. From the given options, select the year corresponding to this second highest growth percentage.

Based on the analysis, the year 1996 exhibits the 2nd highest growth percentage in FDI in India over the observed period.
