Answer: (Detailed Solution Below)

Option D: It will be deemed to have been passed if the Lok Sabha passes it again either by accepting or rejecting the amendments

Detailed Solution:

The correct answer is “It will be deemed to have been passed if the Lok Sabha passes it again either by accepting or rejecting the amendments”.
If the Rajya Sabha amends a Money Bill, the Lok Sabha can either accept or reject those amendments. Once the Lok Sabha passes the bill again, with or without the amendments, it is deemed to have been passed by both houses.
