b. Arrival Scheme
c. Tourism Package
d. Smart Visa

ANSWER: e-Tourist Visa
 
It has been observed that the old name of the scheme was creating confusion among tourists and they presumed as if the Visa is being granted on arrival. However, at present the system of pre-authorization of Visa to foreigners is being given prior to travel. According to Home Ministry, they had also received the requests of name change from some Indian embassies.
