Cost of Production (₹1,65,000) is the cost of everything MANUFACTURED this period — but not everything manufactured is necessarily SOLD this period. Opening Stock of Finished Goods (carried over from last period, sold THIS period) must be ADDED, and Closing Stock of Finished Goods (manufactured this period but not yet sold) must be SUBTRACTED, to arrive at the Cost of Goods actually SOLD.
