The grammatical error is in sentence 3. The correct part should be "to thank you for it." So the answer is C.

The correct form of the sentence is;
Having received your letter this morning, we are writing to thank you for it.
Having received your letter this morning, we are writing to thank you for it.

The phrase "for the same" is not clear and is not the most appropriate way to express gratitude in this context. Instead, you should be more specific about what you are thanking the recipient for. The word "same" doesn't provide enough clarity. You can rephrase the sentence as follows:
"Having received your letter this morning, we are writing to thank you for it".
"Having received your letter this morning, we are writing to thank you for it".
