Possible combinations according to the question are:.
1. HHLMPTJRS.
2. HLMPTSRJ.
3. HLMPJTRS.
4. HLMPJSRT.
5. HLMPSTRJ.
6. HLMPSJRT.
But all answers cannot be true or more than one answer can't be true so WE WILL SEE THAT HLMPTSRJ have only one answer true.

HLMPTJRS.
Both can be true but by 1st answer will satisfy, you can check all answer in both answers.

There can be 2 seating arrangements.
1. J H L M P T R S.
2. H L M P J T R S.
So, the wrong statement is C.
1. J H L M P T R S.
2. H L M P J T R S.
So, the wrong statement is C.

At least "ONE" means at a minimum one one, there can be more than one so condition number 3 and 6 must be changed and the word at least one must be replaced with ONE to get the answer.
Other wise there are too many possible answers as @ Global baba mentioned.
Still, this gives many possible arrangements but satisfies the answer as "C".

Harry, Larry, Mike, Paul, Jack, Taud, Robert, and Simran.
Points are given as;
1. Jack and Simran, not a neighbor.
2. Larry has at least one left to Larry so it is in left.
3. Mike lives in between Paul and Larry and also in the middle houses..
4. If at least one lives to the right of Robert which is Simran then obvious Taud and Larry are not in between..
So, as per the statement Taud is in between Paul and Jack.
