    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    The percentage increase from 1995 to 2000 for various products are 

     Lipsticks = [ (48.1720.15)20.15 x 100 ]% = 139.06%

    Nail enamels = [(37.765.93)5.93 x 100 ]% = 536.76%

    Talcum powders = [ (29.1414.97)14.97 x 100]% =94.66%

    Shampoos = [ (12.217.88)7.88 x  100]% = 54.95% ~= 55%

    Conditioners = [(10.195.01)5.01 x 100]% = 103.39%

    Therefore The minimum rate of increase in sales from 1995 to 2000 is in the case of Shampoos
