I think answers may vary because one may decide to allow 10-20% for wastage& 30%-35% for shrinkage.

Volume of plaster = 0.012 * 100 = 1.2 m^3.
Add 60% for new wall depression & wastages volume of plaster = 1.2 + 1.2 * 60% = 1.92 cum.
Cement = 1.92 * 1/7 = 0.274 m^3.
Add 60% for new wall depression & wastages volume of plaster = 1.2 + 1.2 * 60% = 1.92 cum.
Cement = 1.92 * 1/7 = 0.274 m^3.

According to me, it is .012 * 100 = 1.2, dry wt = 1.54 * 1.2 = 1.848, 1.848 ÷ 7 = .264.
