Explanation:

Fragment C has an error, with respect to verb. Here verb should not be used in gerund form because it is preceded by infinitive “to”. Thus instead of “declining”, use of “decline” is preferred. Correct fragment: owing to decline in private consumption growth, Hence option C is correct.
