300 mm is the correct answer.
According to Is 456:2000. Clause 26.3.3.

Here the effective depth of slab is mentioned if not then obviously be the smaller one, also they mentioned should not be more than, means 30cm is also possible but the greater here is 45cm, so 45 is the correct answer.

Not more means maximum value so acc. To IS 456:2000 it is 45cm.

I think 3d or 450 whichever small.
As per question, 3d=3*150=450mm.
From above smallest among both is 450mm.

So the answer is 45 cm.

Correct explanation @Barish.

Option A is the answer because if it is mentioned that it is a secondary r/f then the correct answer is 450 but here it is main r/f.

30 cm is correct because we always take smaller value.
