    Read Explanation:

    The conclusion of a letter, known as the Subscription or Complimentary Close, depends on the relationship between the sender and the recipient.

    • Yours faithfully: This is the standard subscription for Official Letters, Formal Letters, and Business Letters, especially when the letter begins with the formal salutation "Sir," "Madam," "Dear Sir," or "Dear Madam."

    • Yours sincerely: This is used in Semi-formal or Demy-official (D.O.) letters where the sender and recipient have a more personal acquaintance or when the salutation includes the person's name (e.g., "Dear Mr. Smith").

    • Yours Truly: This is an older, more American style of formal closing, but it is less common in modern Indian government/official correspondence compared to "Yours faithfully."
