@Sundar. Good explanation. But there needs to be two corrections.
1. Your answer will be perfect when its given that "He is the son of the ""only"" daughter of the father of my uncle. ".
2. In Intro given by India bix, if its given simply as uncle, one has to take it as father's bro. One have to take it as mother's bro only when its given as maternal uncle. This is pointed by Sandeep.

As per case 1 of Sundar, brother of girls mother is maternal uncle but not uncle.
In the question they given uncle but not maternal uncle.
So uncle is fathers brother.
In that case ans is cousin but not brother.

I think there should be only son in the option not son-in-law.

It should be referred to the girl and the answer can be bother cousin or brother. But since the option cousin does not exist the answer is brother. But they should've included the option cousin or brother in my opinion.

It is correct.
The logic is;
Father of girl's Uncle= Grandfather (May be from Mother side may be from Father sider)
1-IF grandfather from father side then answer will be "cousin".No option of cousin in answer so
2- Grandfather is from mother side now see girl's mother also grandfather's daughter not only her aunt that's why the answer is the brother.
