Her mother is Gourav's mother or aunt... I don't know.... it's unclear.

Considering the way the thing is phrased.... I'd say someone is illegitimate...

Good try but there is a correct answer (it's not a trick question, you just have to think about it)

Hehe... think like Sherlock Holmes does?
Where... the sentence says "only son", but doesn't mention "only daughter" for that grandfather, so, given the roundabout way that the thing is phrased, that must be the aunt, one that's not much liked, because if that was his mother, then he'd just say that the girl is his sister. Also, in India, there always many sons and daughters, right? Sad family that only has one son and one daughter, huh?

Something like that?
Not really a logic problem, but more like a social wording one?
