The correct answer is Option A (68%).

Key Points:
• The Thirteenth Finance Commission (chaired by Dr. Vijay L. Kelkar for the period 2010–2015) presented an elaborate fiscal consolidation roadmap for India.
• At the time of its report, combined public debt stood near 75% to 80% of GDP following the 2008 financial crisis fiscal stimulus packages.
• Target recommendations of the 13th Finance Commission:
• The combined debt-GDP ratio of the Centre and the States should be brought down to 68% of GDP by the fiscal year 2014–15.
• Of this 68% combined debt ceiling, the Central Government's debt was to be capped at 45% (later adjusted to 44.8%), and the collective debt of the State Governments was to be brought down to 25% (or 24.3%).
• In accordance with this statutory macro-fiscal consolidation target, Option 1 (68%) is the correct answer verified by the official MPSC answer key.
• Key Takeaway: The 13th Finance Commission mandated reducing the combined debt-to-GDP ratio to 68% by 2014–15.
