IMO: D. Since it is stunning later in the sentence, it shows something unexpected happening in the sentence, despite will express this perfectly.

What is the OA?

Thanks.

Answer should be option E and not option D. [spoiler]Accounted for only 12% of the population is the right way to say this. [/spoiler].. Look at the part getting modified.

OA: E

Thanks for your reply, saketk! I would be glad if you explain your answer in detail. I am not able to understand what makes this option the most correct one! Thanks!

Try this --

Although accounting for almost 25 percent of the total area, the car parking area in the Phoenix mall is not sufficient for all the visitors.

Tell me if you understand the usage or I'll be more specific.

I just want you to understand this thing yourself.
