गरीब राज्यातील गरिबी दूर करण्यासाठी अकराव्या वित्त आयोगाने सुचविलेल्या पर्यायानुसार कर उत्पन्न विभागणीमध्ये राज्यातील दरडोई उत्पन्नातील तफावतीला देण्यात आलेले महत्त्व खालील प्रमाणे वाढविले

The correct answer is Option A (60% to 62.5%).

Key Points:
• The Eleventh Finance Commission (chaired by Prof. A. M. Khusro, 2000–2005) formulated an inter-se horizontal devolution formula to distribute divisible central taxes among states.
• In preceding commissions (such as the Tenth Finance Commission under K. C. Pant), the weightage for income disparity/distance was set at 60%.
• To inject greater equity, assist resource-starved poorer states, and mitigate interstate disparities, the Eleventh Finance Commission restructured its equity weights:
• The weight for the Distance Criterion (दरडोई उत्पन्नातील अंतर/तफावत) was formally revised to 62.5% (combining 60% distance formula plus an equity adjustment factor) from the earlier 60% baseline.
• Other criteria included Population (10%), Area (7.5%), Index of Infrastructure (7.5%), Fiscal Discipline (7.5%), and Tax Effort (5.0%).
• In accordance with this specific equity formula increase, Option 1 (60% to 62.5%) is the verified correct answer in the official MPSC answer key.
• Key Takeaway: The 11th Finance Commission adjusted the weightage for per capita income distance from 60% to 62.5% to aid poorer states.
