I differ with the explanation given.
C is the father of D, B is the Sister of C i.e D's aunt.
A is brother of B i.e C's brother i.e D's uncle.
If anybody do not agree with me, kindly reply.
C is the father of D, B is the Sister of C i.e D's aunt.

Hey @Vinay,
If the Option given is nephew which is the near most relation to A & hence Whatever the options be when the sex is not mentioned we will not consider it & hence I think option c "nephew" is correct answer.
As far as my Knowledge if wrong please discuss further.

Since the option given is nephew the answer could be niece too. Therefore the option of can't be determined that's "D" is the correct option. I hope you understand.

The answer will be "c" because whatever you give the explanation is right, but niece is not there in the option. So we conclude that the answer is definitely "C".
