I feel like the answer could be B or D, but I need to double-check how to calculate the total loss based on the unit size.

I'm a bit unsure about the exact math here, but if he sold at Rs.2500 and it went to Rs.2550, that sounds like a loss to me.

I practiced a similar question where the price change was different, but I think the loss calculation involves the difference in price times the quantity.

I think I remember that selling futures means you're betting the price will go down, so if it goes up, you lose.
