Correct Answer Explanation
Note is the last part of the table. It explains the specific feature of the data content of the table which is not self-explanatory and has not been explained earlier.
Key Points:
- Notes provide additional clarifications about the data.
- Example: "Note: Figures are rounded to nearest crore".
- It is placed after the source at the bottom of the table.
- Not all tables require a note — only when specific clarification is needed.
Why Other Options Are Wrong
- A. Source: Source indicates data origin, not explanatory details.
- B. Title: Title describes the overall content of the table.
- D. Stub: Stubs are row headings.
