With increase in % of steel, section tends to become over reinforced. And concrete tends to fail prior to steel.

Because if steel is increased the tensile strength is increased manifold so large compressive force is required to counteract this force. Larger comp.force larger nu.depth.

PT% = 100 AST/BD.
Then the answer is option A.
Then the answer is option A.

@Ranjan they didn't ask EFFECTIVE DEPTH of the slab.
But they asked DEPTH OF NEUTRAL AXIS.
But they asked DEPTH OF NEUTRAL AXIS.

If steel is increased in the tensile zone, then the neutral axis will move down in the beam, (depth of N-axis will increase).

Yes, both B&D are correct @Ashley.
