Solution

The correct option is D [Co(NO2)2(NH3)4]+
[Co(NO2)2(NH3)4]+ shows the following isomerism:
1) Linkage isomerism through oxygen [ONO] and nitrogen [NO2].
2) Geometrical isomerism: 2 cis isomers and 1 trans isomer
[Ni(en)(NH3)4]2+ and [Fe(C2O4)(en)2]2 will show optical isomerism. But total isomers are 4. But it has 5 isomerism.
