For 1st share :

N.V. = ₹ 100

Dividend % = 10%

No. of shares = 100

Dividend = No. of shares × Dividend % × N.V.

= 100 × 10% × 100

= 100 × 10100×\dfrac{10}{100} \times 100

= ₹ 1000.

For 2nd share :

N.V. = ₹ 100

Dividend % = 10%

No. of shares = 100

Dividend = No. of shares × Dividend % × N.V.

= 100 × 10% × 100

= 100 × 10100×\dfrac{10}{100} \times 100

= ₹ 1000.

Total dividend = ₹ 1000 + ₹ 1000 = ₹ 2000.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
