Goods ₹19,000; ₹4,000 paid immediately ⇒ bill = ₹15,000 for 3 months, drawn Mar 02, 2017 ⇒ maturity = June 05, 2017 (Jun 02 + 3 days of grace). The discount rate is not given in the problem, so the ₹15,000 bill is shown discounted at face value (no discount amount is computable). On dishonour the bank paid ₹30 noting charges, so Nisha owes ₹15,000 + ₹30 = ₹15,030.
