Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C.
1. A **Money Bill may be introduced only in the Lok Sabha** — never in the Rajya Sabha and never directly in a joint sitting.
2. Under Article 109, the Rajya Sabha has **limited powers**: it can only make recommendations on a Money Bill within fourteen days of receipt; the Lok Sabha may accept or reject these recommendations.
3. If the Lok Sabha does not accept the recommendations or if the Bill is not returned within fourteen days, the Money Bill is deemed to have been passed by both Houses in the form originally passed by the Lok Sabha.
4. The ICSI text reiterates this in the in-line question box: 'In which of the following houses a Money Bill may be introduced? Answer: (B) Lok Sabha.'
