@Kiransai.
Have to understand Nanda joined after six months means, this 6 month will be deducted from the total time period. And from the starting of the company simran was in the business for 3 years. That means simran was in the business for 36 months and nanda joined after 6 month means (36-6). Which is 30 months? I hope this will help you.

It's confusing, first, Simran started company, after 6 months, Nanda joined, and after three year, they earned profits. Why is not counting month of Sirman (6+ (12*3) =42 and Nanda (12*3) =36?
Please explain.
