Hello Sir, In this problem, we have assumed GOI bonds return as risk free rate however the beta value is given in the question as 0.01 which is not zero as of a risk free asset. Also as you mentioned, ICAI answer is confusing as they have computed Market Portfolio using the securities given in the question. How do we approach these types of questions in the exam?

Unlikely that you will get such questions in exam going by recent trend. Even if they come - take most reasonable assumption and move forward.

Sir, in this question we could find the enterprise value = value of the firm using EV/EBITDA approach and also through cash flow based model. Institute has found it using two models. However wrote the value of the firm using the cash flow model. Why? If like this comes in exam what should we do?
