I think letter comes first into the picture. Without a letter, the envelope has no existential meaning.

Anyway, delivery comes after clearance, so A cannot be the answer.

Letter means you already written and if there was a paper in option then we take first paper, write on paper which becomes a letter then put it in an envelope.

I think letter should come before envelope. Yes, it does mean that it is already written but we put the letter in an envelope.
Put the letter in an envelope -> post it in a post-box -> post offices clears the letter -> then delivery.
Put the letter in an envelope -> post it in a post-box -> post offices clears the letter -> then delivery.

We take the letter and then put it in an envelope. So, letter should come before envelope.

@Sunudhi.
The given answer is correct. The sequence is not about how we put it but it is about dependency. An empty envelope can be posted. But a letter without an envelope cannot be posted. That is why the envelope comes.
This is a fine line because you can take envelope first and letter second to put in it and vice versa. Hence we have to find a better and logical sequence, thus the dependency sequence. Hope this clears all doubts.
