Adding to what @Bhanupriya explained HLMPJRST AND HLMPSRJT are possible so in any condition option 4 can't be a correct statement to make thus, option 4 is the answer.

The correct answer is SHLMPRJT.

Clearly from the conclusion. Read the conclusion and judge. There can be only 3 person right to paul. So simon can't be after taud.

We do not need to find J and S position and even it is not clear so the arrangement will be like:

J/S R J/S P M H L T

SO TAUD IS NOT IN BETWEEN JACK AND PAUL.

S R T P M L H J.

So you can check all the given options here and at the end, you will get the correct answer as (C).

The first letter of names is used here.
(4)

If the answer is "C" and it is NOT CORRECT. It means remaining three options (A, B & D) are CORRECT.

The seating arrangement is:

(Left) JHLMPSRT (Right).

J-H-L-M-P-S-R-T.

This is the right order according to the conditions which has been given in the question so that T doesn't come in between Paul and Jack.
