If the price is reduced by 15 %, then the new price will be 0.85D

Let the sum be Rs. p, rate be R% p.a. and time be T years.

Then,

 P×T×(R+2)100-P×T×R100=108 ⇒2PT= 10800 ...... (1)

 And, 

 P×R×(T+2)100-P×R×T100=180 ⇒2PR = 18000 ......(2)

Clearly, from (1) and (2), we cannot find the value of p
So, the data is not sufficient.
