I think C can also be the answer:

for the past one month

Past perfect continous tense:see the [c] last one month.

The answer surely cannot be option C. Option B is correct. One more possible answer that I think could be correct is 'has not attended' .... like .... 'Mr. Praful Patel has not attended the office for the last one month' ...

Since the last one month can be true.

"since" is used only when a specific point of time is given.

Please give me a brief description about the sentence and correct answer.

If there should be have been in option b than in option c it must be since last one month. Because according to gramatical rule in present perfect continuous tense since is used when there is a specific period of time given. And last one month is a specific period of time.
