    Solution

    Box R is placed three shelves above box T.  Box T is placed at even number position. Box T is placed in stack 1.  Box Q is in north east direction of Box R. Two shelves are placed between S and P.  Box P is placed south east of box V and west of box W.  Box V is not placed at top most position. Box X is placed two places above box W has same stack. More than Two known boxes are placed in left most stack. So case-2a-1 and case2a-2 is not valid. So final is case-1b
