Komal does not have birthday in April. Only two people have birthday between Komal and Priya. Arun and Priya have birthday on the same date. Chhavi has birthday one of the days before Arun. Only one person has birthday between Chhavi and Jay. Less than four people have birthday between Jay and Sandeep.

Options:
A)

Rahul

B)

Arun

C)

Priya

D)

Sandeep

E)

Komal

Solution:

 

Ans: (c)

We can easily start the question by taking two instances of Rahul on 19th date of april and sept. month, Followed by positioning Komal on the 26th of  two months i.e either 26th of sept. or 26th of Decemb. In other case. We will see that Komal and priya have two people between them and now by putting the information of Chhavi with jay and sandeep will give us the correct solution.
