I believe the answer is: in-elastic
A product is considered to be inelastic if the change in price do not or has very little impact of the product demand.
From the scenario above, we can see that even though the price drops, the percentage is still way below the amount of price icnreased (10% : 30%) , so we can consider the product to be inelastic.
