Mr. Praful Patel is not attending his office "for the past one month" will also be correct.

Why not to be used in the part of "has not been" in " had not been"? I think it is wrong.

The description given by @Rahul and @Shyamal was nice and provides better understanding.

It could also be "Mr. Praful Patel is not attending his office since last month".

Abhishek said: It can also be c like "since last one month"

Shashank said:   1 decade ago
Option b and c both can b corrected to get d right answer I suppose.

Ajay said:   1 decade ago
I agree with it sounds great to put "from last one month "

Answer could be C also. Since last one month instead of "for".

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