The correct answer is option 1: 14 days.
According to Article 109 of the Indian Constitution, a Money Bill can be introduced in the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of Parliament. However, the Rajya Sabha does not have the power to reject or amend a Money Bill. It can, however, withhold its consent to a Money Bill for up to 14 days.
This means that if the Rajya Sabha does not give its consent to the Money Bill within 14 days, it will be deemed to have been passed by both houses of Parliament. In other words, the Money Bill will be considered to have been passed even if the Rajya Sabha does not vote on it or does not approve it.
It is important to note that this power of the Rajya Sabha is limited only to Money Bills. For other types of bills, the Rajya Sabha can reject or amend them like the Lok Sabha, the lower house of Parliament. But when it comes to Money Bills, the Rajya Sabha has limited power and can only withhold its consent for up to 14 days.
