    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

    Since face value is not given, let it be Rs. 100
    As it is an 9% stock, income (dividend) per stock = Rs. 9
    Now, for an income of Rs. 9 the amount invested or the price of the stock = Rs. 100
    For an income of Rs. 900, the amount invested in buying the stocks = Rs.* 900 = Rs. 10,000
