Correct answer: A

India's yearly climate follows a fixed, cyclical order: winter (roughly December to February) is followed by summer (March to June), which is followed by the rainy or monsoon season (June to September); after that, the monsoon retreats during an October-November transition period and the weather turns back into winter.

Applying this cycle to the question: the season that comes right after the rainy season is winter -- as the monsoon withdraws, temperatures fall and winter conditions begin.

Contrast with the other options: spring is not part of India's standard four-season classification used in general geography syllabi, so it cannot be the answer here; summer actually comes BEFORE the rainy season in the cycle, not after, so it reverses the correct order; and since exactly one listed season (winter) fits, both 'more than one of the above' and 'none of the above' are incorrect.
