Solution (By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{S}}{\text{.I}}{\text{. = Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {\frac{{19200 \times 12 \times 3}}{{100}}} \right) \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.6912}} \cr & {\text{C}}{\text{.I}}{\text{. = Rs}}{\text{.}}\left[ {19200 \times {{\left( {1 + \frac{{12}}{{100}}} \right)}^3} - 19200} \right] \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left[ {\left( {19200 \times \frac{{28}}{{25}} \times \frac{{28}}{{25}} \times \frac{{28}}{{25}}} \right) - 19200} \right] \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {\frac{{16859136}}{{625}} - 19200} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. }}\left( {26974.6176 - 19200} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 7774}}{\text{.6176}} \cr & \therefore {\text{Difference }} \cr & {\text{ = Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {7774.6176 - 6912} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 862}}{\text{.6176}} \cr} $$
