The correct answer would be DATA INADEQUATE since two cases is possible. One, where Lata's Mother is the sister of THE ONLY SON (of grandfather), which means the son of the only son is a cousin of LATA.
Secondly, Lata's father is the ONLY SON, which makes the son of the only son, Lata's own brother.
Anyone, please gie me the correct answer.

What if the grandfather is the mother's father then the answer would be a cousin. Right?

I thought we were not supposed to assign gender based on the name. In some questions, the name Kiran is used for both boys and girls.
Since it is not mentioned in the question about Lata's gender, it is not correct to decide on the answer to the question as Brother.
So, According to the things I've learned, it's data inadequate.

Here both the options brother and cousin are given. So we can't determine exactly the correct answer. So, I think the answer is data inadequate.

My question is "how are we concluding that it is paternal grandfather", there could be a possibility that grandfather is from the maternal side also. Right?

Only son does not mean only child.
The grandfather may have a daughter or many daughters also but only one son. The correct answer should be either brother or cousin.

@Aall.
It said the only son but it doesn't say only child there is a difference. So the answer is data inadequate.

In the question, Lata says that he is the only son of my grandfather. By this point, we can conclude 2 things.
1. The person whom Lata is pointing can be her father or,
2, Data inadequate, answers can't be determined.
