Box J kept at fifth position from the top. Two boxes kept between G and J. there are two positions.  Box D is kept just above box G.

  

There are as many boxes above box D as below box A. This condition possible only in case (i)

  

Five boxes are kept between box E and box C, which is kept at one of the positions below box J. if . Box I is kept at one of the positions above box E. Only one box is kept between Box J and Box H. Thus 

E = 4th position from Top 

I = 3rd position from Top

C= 2nd position from Bottom. 

H= 7th position from Top.

  

B kept above box F but not just above. Box F is not kept immediately above or immediately below box H.

Thus 

F =  9th position from Top

B =  6th position from Top 

Remaining Box K kept between H and F.
