@All.
Here it says External Assistance has received less amount (i.e 9695) As the required amount was (11486). So what percentage should we need to increase in Market Borrowing so the balance of money is stable?
Thus the amount required more by External Assistance is 1791 (i.e 11486 - 9695 = 1791)
so we need to add this amount i.e 1791 in Market Borrowing.
Thus we need to find that what per cent of total Market Borrowing is this amount.
so as per the formula;
Required percentage( i.e X% )= (1791 / 29952)*100.
Thus we get 5.97% Which corresponds to 6%.
Meaning is we need to add 6% of Market Borrowing (i.e 1791 amount )in the total of Market Borrowing. So, that the total balance is stable i.e 57600 (Total Addition of Rupees in the chart).

Questions says External Assistance, by what percent (approximately) should it increase the "Market Borrowing" to arrange for the shortage of funds, so;
M.B. As given in chart =29,952.
Amt. received by NHAI= 9695.
Hence,shortage of funds arranged,
through External Assistance=
11,486- 9695=1791.
% increases =(1791x100)/29952.
=5.97% ~6%.

Yes got it now. It says 1791 has to be increased on the initial 29952 of market borrowing.
