Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Concept: In a letter-coding question, first infer the fixed alphabet shift used at each position. The same position-wise shifts must then be applied to the new word.
For this five-letter pattern, the shifts are +3, -3, +3, -3, +3 in alphabet order.
From NOIDA to QLLAD, the letters move as N->Q (+3), O->L (-3), I->L (+3), D->A (-3), and A->D (+3).
Apply the same shifts to AJMER: A->D, J->G, M->P, E->B, and R->U.
Combining the coded letters gives DGPBU.
Cross-check: reversing the shifts on DGPBU gives AJMER, and the same alternating shifts reproduce QLLAD from NOIDA. Therefore AJMER is coded as DGPBU.
