Solution

The correct option is C Nita
We have seven representatives of a company who travels to three different countries.
Conditions:-
(i) No two persons travelled on the same day. Each person travelled on different days of the week starting from Monday.
(ii) A minimum of two people travelled to each country.
According to the given information:-
South Africa is the only country to which three people travelled.
Samir travelled to South Africa on Monday.
The one who travelled to Australia travelled on Tuesday.
Gifty travelled on Wednesday.
Mohit travelled on Sunday.
The one who travelled to France travelled on Saturday.
Paul travelled to Australia but neither on Tuesday not on Saturday.

Now, from the given information, we have:-

$\begin{matrix} R e p r s e n t a t i v e s & C o u n t r i e s & D a y s S a m i r & S o u t h A f r i c a & M o n d a y . . . . & A u s t r i a l i a & T u e s d a y G i f t y & . . . . . & W e d n e s d a y . . . . . & . . . . . & T h u r s d a y . . . . . & . . . . . & F r i d a y . . . . . & F r a n c e & S a t u r d a y M o h i t & . . . . . & S u n d a y \end{matrix}$

Richa travelled to South Africa but not on Thursday. So, Richa went on Friday
Paul travelled to Australia but neither on Tuesday nor on Saturday.
So, it is clear that Paul travelled to Australia on Thursday.
Nita did not travel to France.
It means that Nita travelled to Australia on Tuesday.
Mohit did not travel to France.
It means that Mohit visits South Africa.
Shweta is the only one left, so Sweta travels to France on Saturday.
Gifty travels to France as a minimum of two people travelled to each country.
Now, we can arrange the following information as.
$\begin{matrix} R e p r s e n t a t i v e s & C o u n t r i e s & D a y s S a m i r & S o u t h A f r i c a & M o n d a y N i t a & A u s t r i a l i a & T u e s d a y G i f t y & F r a n c e & W e d n e s d a y P a u l & A u s t r a l i a & T h u r s d a y R i c h a & S o u t h A f r i c a & F r i d a y S h w e t a & F r a n c e & S a t u r d a y M o h i t & S o u t h A f r i c a & S u n d a y \end{matrix}$

If the trip is postponed by one day, then Nita will visit on Wednesday.
