Wait, is this a trick question? What if the answer is actually 'none of the above'? I'm just going to go with my gut and say C) Rs. 50,000,000. Or maybe I should just flip a coin...

I'm going to have to go with C) Rs. 50,000,000. It just feels like the sweet spot between a slap on the wrist and breaking the bank. Though I'm sure the lawmakers had a good reason for the number they chose.

Hold on, what if I told you the correct answer is A) Upper limit not defined? That would be a real plot twist, wouldn't it? Time to brush up on the latest amendments!

Whoa, that's a hefty fine! D) Rs. 500,000,000 seems a bit extreme, doesn't it? I'm going with C) Rs. 50,000,000 as the more reasonable upper limit.

I think the answer is B) Rs. 5,000,000. The IT (Amendment) Act, 2008 sets a clear limit on the penalty for negligence in protecting Sensitive Personal Data or Information.
