Correct Answer :

Option C

(A)- (IV), (B) - (1), (C) (11), (D) (III)

Solution :

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


To understand why this is the correct matching, let us analyze the definitions of each management planning term listed in List-I:

(A) Strategy: A strategy is a comprehensive, long-term plan formulated to achieve the overall objectives of an organization. It takes into account the business environment and competitive dynamics. Thus, it matches with (IV) Comprehensive plan for accomplishing objectives.

(B) Method: A method refers to the prescribed, standardized way of performing a particular step or task within a procedure. It specifies the path to be followed for efficiency and uniformity. Thus, it matches with (I) Prescribed way of doing a task.

(C) Programme: A programme is a concrete and detailed statement containing the combination of goals, policies, procedures, rules, task assignments, steps to be taken, resources to be deployed, and other elements necessary to carry out a given course of action. Thus, it matches with (II) Detailed statements about a project.

(D) Procedure: A procedure outlines the exact chronological sequence and manner in which routine activities or tasks must be executed. It is a step-by-step guide for action. Thus, it matches with (III) Exact manner in which a particular activity is to be done.


Putting it all together, we get the matching:
• (A) → (IV)
• (B) → (I)
• (C) → (II)
• (D) → (III)

This directly aligns with the option: (A)- (IV), (B) - (I), (C) (II), (D) (III) (noting that the roman numeral "I" is written as "1" or "I" and "II" as "II" or "11" in some typographical variations of the options).
