In a developing country, the price of a stock is directly proportional to the reciprocal of the inflation in the country, which is in turn directly proportional to the local diesel prices. The price of the stock is \(100\) currency units when the inflation is \(10\) units and when the inflation is \(12\) units, the local price of the diesel is \(60\) currency units. By how many currency units should the local diesel price fall so that the price of the stock, which is currently at \(200\) currency units, increases by \(25\) percent?

A. \(5\)
B. \(10\)
C. \(25\)
D. \(30\)
