Apologies, the underlined section is as follows:

the company's new management stated a plan for expansion of its operations

My question is: Are managers synonymous with management. Couldn't a companys management not be different from including only its managers?

the company's new managers stated their plan to expand its operations
the new company managers stated their plan for its operations, expanding
the company's new management stated that they planned to expand its operations
In A, B and E, their (plural) does not agree with management (singular). Eliminate A, B and E.

COMMA + VERBing refers to the subject of the nearest preceding clause. Thus, in D, expanding refers to managers, implying that the MANAGERS themselves will be EXPANDING into the global software market. The intended meaning is that the managers plan to expand the company's OPERATIONS into the global software market. Eliminate D.

The correct answer is C.

Management is a COLLECTIVE NOUN.
Collective nouns are SINGULAR.
Managers -- a COUNTABLE noun -- is PLURAL.

I don't see 'their' in A , it looks like a valid answer to me .
Sir, Please clarify :?

Check the non-underlined portion that begins the sentence:

It's a fairly common setup on trickier questions: something outside the underline portion dictating the changes we have to make. Whenever I see a modifying phrase before the underlined portion, I automatically check for agreement.
