Explanation :
Mr. Suyash and Mrs. Sunita are a couple (from 1) and have three sons (from 3).
Two of their sons Nipun and Rupesh are unmarries (from 4) and the third son is marries to Khanna’s daughter Netra (from 6).
Mr. and Mrs. Ashutosh have two children (from 5). Their daughter Netra is married to Mr. Suyash’s son while their son Alok is married to Mr. Aript’s daughter.
Alok’s wife has the same name as Raman’s wife (from 7). Since Raman is married, he would be the married son of Mr. Suyash and Mrs. Sunita.
∴ Raman is married to Netra and Alok’s wife’s name is also Netra who is the daughter of Mr. Arpit and Mrs. Roshni Gupta
Mrs. Roshni also has a son who is not married (from 7) whose name is Anshul (from 9).
Alok and Netra’s children are named after their uncle and aunt (from 7) i.e., daughter’s name would be Netra whereas son’s name could be any of the following – Nipun, Rupesh, Raman or Anshul.
The sons of the married son of Mr. Suyash are named after their grandfathers (from 8) i.e., Suyash and Ashutosh.
