Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
To calculate the indirect ownership interest of Parent Ltd in S2 Ltd, we need to multiply the ownership percentages of S1 Ltd and S2 Ltd.

Parent Ltd owns 90% of S1 Ltd, which in turn owns 60% of S2 Ltd.

So, the indirect ownership interest of Parent Ltd in S2 Ltd is:

90% * 60% = 54%

Therefore, the best choice is C, with an indirect ownership interest of 54%.
