Correct choice is (a) Inglis formula

To explain I would say: Inglis formula was given by Sir Inglis derived his formula for catchments of Maharashtra state of India. He divided the areas into ghat areas (Sahyadri ranges) and non-ghat areas depending upon the rainfall intensity and gave the formula to determine the yield.
