*
A. Rs. 6876.10
B. Rs. 6999.20
C. Rs. 6654
D. Rs. 7000

To determine the amount Ashwini has to pay for the goods, let's follow these steps:

1. **Calculate the rebate amount:**

   \[
   \text{Rebate} = 6\% \text{ of } 6650 = \frac{6}{100} \times 6650 = 399
   \]

2. **Calculate the price after the rebate:**

   \[
   \text{Price after rebate} = 6650 - 399 = 6251
   \]

3. **Calculate the sales tax on the discounted price:**

   \[
   \text{Sales tax} = 10\% \text{ of } 6251 = \frac{10}{100} \times 6251 = 625.10
   \]

4. **Calculate the total amount to be paid:**

   \[
   \text{Total amount} = 6251 + 625.10 = 6876.10
   \]

So, the amount Ashwini will have to pay for the goods is **Rs. 6876.10**.
