Correct Answer :

Option D

Cannot be determined

Solution :

To find the profession of Namita, let us analyze the given information step-by-step:


Step 1: Determine the family structure and generations

(i) There are six family members across three generations with two married couples.
(ii) From statement (v), Mohan is the grandfather of Raman. From statement (vi), Sarita is the granddaughter of Vanita.
(iii) Statement (iv) states that Vanita is the mother-in-law of Namita. This means Vanita and Mohan form the 1st generation couple (grandparents).
(iv) Charan is married to Namita, forming the 2nd generation couple (parents).
(v) Raman and Sarita belong to the 3rd generation (children/grandchildren).


Step 2: Assign professions and colors

1. Raman: Principal, likes Black.
2. Sarita: Granddaughter, likes Blue.
3. Namita: Sarita’s mother, likes White.
4. Vanita: Likes Orange.
5. Charan: CA.
6. Statement (iii) states that the Engineer likes red and his wife is a teacher. Since Mohan is the grandfather and married to Vanita, Mohan is the Engineer (likes Red) and Vanita is the Teacher.


Step 3: Analyze Namita's profession

From statement (ii), Charan's wife (Namita) is neither a doctor nor likes green colour.
Since the available professions mentioned or implied are CA, Principal, Engineer, Teacher, Doctor, and one remaining profession, and Namita cannot be a doctor, her exact profession is not specified in the given information.


Therefore, the profession of Namita Cannot be determined.


The correct option is Cannot be determined.
