What is stock value?

I guess the answer should be Rs 6500. Because if 10% is the profit per share then 10% of 6500/- makes 650/-. But 10% of 6240 makes 624/- which is not the desired profit 650.

Market value is Rs.96.
Dividend is 10%.
If we go through the formula.
Rate of interest p.a. = 10*100/96 would give us 10.42%.
So if we invest Rs.6240 we would get income of Rs.650.
