Explanation:

Correct Answer is (c).A simple thumb rule for such questions with 'not only' and 'but also' is as follows: since the words but also precede a phrase, the words not only should precede the previous phrase as well. This can be seen only in Option C.
Option A is incorrect as 'not only' is stressing on his business rather than the aspect of its getting doubled.
Option B is false due to plural businesses rather than business which further clashes with has.The correct phrase should be business has
Option D does not make any sense.Hence, option C is correct.
