In case of currency options , please confirm if following is the correct way of deciding Exercise price :-
1) In case of Put options (Sell) , select the exercise price with Highest Net Receipt ( Exercise price – Premium paid).
2) In case of Call Options (Buy) , select the exercise price with Lowest “Total Payment” (Exercise price + premium paid)
Sir, please help me with query as early as possible.

There is no such things as a ‘best’ exercise price – different exercise prices fix different limits, but have different premium costs.
In the exam you are expected to show the results for each of the available exercise prices and then discuss.
