I think C should be the answer because the increase in demand for tea in the European market would be the MAIN cause behind the increase in the value of tea by govt of India (as in statement 1 it is said).
Then increase in demand for coffee in the domestic market would also be a cause due to which suppose (just assume) that the price of a coffee would have been increased.
So, both these statements clearly indicate 2 totally different causes which can EASILY give rise to different effects.

D is the right answer. Both the statements are "effect" & Not sure how anyone can think they are "causes"!
