Let's address the questions one by one based on the data given in the table.

### 13. **The average yearly expenditure on 'Interest on Loans' during the period 2008-2012 was approximately:**

From the table:
- 2008: ₹4.68 Crores
- 2009: ₹6.50 Crores
- 2010: ₹8.32 Crores
- 2011: ₹7.28 Crores
- 2012: ₹9.88 Crores

To find the average:
\[
\text{Average} = \frac{4.68 + 6.50 + 8.32 + 7.28 + 9.88}{5} = \frac{36.66}{5} = 7.33 \text{ Crores}
\]

Thus, the correct answer is:
- **(d) ₹7.33 Crores**

### 14. **Bonus as a percentage (%) of salary was highest in the year:**

We will calculate the bonus as a percentage of salary for each year:
- 2008: \( \frac{0.6}{57.6} \times 100 = 1.04\% \)
- 2009: \( \frac{0.5}{68.4} \times 100 = 0.73\% \)
- 2010: \( \frac{0.76}{64.8} \times 100 = 1.17\% \)
- 2011: \( \frac{0.74}{67.2} \times 100 = 1.10\% \)
- 2012: \( \frac{0.80}{84.0} \times 100 = 0.95\% \)

The highest percentage is in **2010** with 1.17%.

Thus, the correct answer is:
- **(c) 2010**

### 15. **In which year was the total expenditure (over the five heads of expenditure listed) the least?**

We need to sum the expenditures for each year:
- 2008: \( 57.6 + 19.6 + 0.6 + 4.68 + 16.6 = 99.08 \)
- 2009: \( 68.4 + 22.4 + 0.5 + 6.50 + 21.6 = 119.4 \)
- 2010: \( 64.8 + 20.2 + 0.76 + 8.32 + 14.8 = 108.88 \)
- 2011: \( 67.2 + 26.6 + 0.74 + 7.28 + 17.6 = 119.42 \)
- 2012: \( 84.0 + 28.4 + 0.80 + 9.88 + 19.6 = 142.68 \)

The least total expenditure was in **2008**, with 99.08 crores.

Thus, the correct answer is:
- **(a) 2008**

### 16. **In which years, the percentage (%) growth of expenditure on salary (as compared to the previous year), was more than 10%?**

We will calculate the percentage growth in salary for each year compared to the previous year:
- From 2008 to 2009: \( \frac{68.4 - 57.6}{57.6} \times 100 = 18.75\% \)
- From 2009 to 2010: \( \frac{64.8 - 68.4}{68.4} \times 100 = -5.26\% \)
- From 2010 to 2011: \( \frac{67.2 - 64.8}{64.8} \times 100 = 3.7\% \)
- From 2011 to 2012: \( \frac{84.0 - 67.2}{67.2} \times 100 = 25\% \)

The years where the growth was more than 10% were **2009** and **2012**.

Thus, the correct answer is:
- **(d) 2009 and 2012**

### 17. **In which year, the expenditure of taxes and 'Interest on Loans' was less than the expenditure on fuel, etc.?**

We will compare the sum of taxes and interest on loans with the fuel expenditure for each year:
- 2008: \( 16.6 + 4.68 = 21.28 \), fuel = 19.6 → \( 21.28 > 19.6 \)
- 2009: \( 21.6 + 6.50 = 28.1 \), fuel = 22.4 → \( 28.1 > 22.4 \)
- 2010: \( 14.8 + 8.32 = 23.12 \), fuel = 20.2 → \( 23.12 > 20.2 \)
- 2011: \( 17.6 + 7.28 = 24.88 \), fuel = 26.6 → \( 24.88 < 26.6 \) (Here, taxes and interest are less than fuel.)
- 2012: \( 19.6 + 9.88 = 29.48 \), fuel = 28.4 → \( 29.48 > 28.4 \)

Thus, the correct answer is:
- **(c) 2011**
