The correct Answer is:
B

Let us draw a diagram for the statements (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii). Let us start with (iv).

Now, D, the husband of the other female, sits opposite her. Hence,

Now, let us consider statement (viii). It implies that C is a bachelor and B is a male. This completes the picture :
