This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2023 Paper 2 Computer Science and Applications Question Paper (26-Mar-2023)
The correct answer is

Collecting data

A literature review surveys earlier studies before the research is carried out.

Identifying the research problem: reviewing literature reveals gaps and helps define the problem - a purpose.

Developing hypothesis: past findings and theories provide the basis for stating hypotheses - a purpose.

Developing method: earlier studies suggest suitable designs, tools and statistical techniques - a purpose.

Collecting data: data are collected from the subjects in the field or laboratory during the study itself; reviewing literature is not a means of collecting the study's data, so this is not a purpose of literature review.

Hence, the answer is Collecting data.
