D sits at one of the corner of the table but she is not an immediate neighbour of C. I sits third to   the left of C. A is an immediate neighbour of H and both are facing the opposite direction to each other. E does not share the side with I and sits second to the left of G who does not sit at the middle of the table. B sits third to the left of I and both are facing the same direction.

    Solution

    F sits second to the left of H who sits at the corner of the table. As per this statement, there are two possible cases and the arrangement will look like this: Only one person sits between F and C who faces inside the table. D sits at one of the corner of the table but she is not an immediate neighbour of C. I sits third to the left of C. Case-2 A is an immediate neighbour of H and both are facing the opposite direction to each other. As per this statement, CASE I will further get split into one more case and the arrangement will look like this: E does not share the side with I and sits second to the left of G who does not sit at the middle of the table. B sits third to the left of I and both are facing the same direction. As per this statement, CASE I and CASE I (A) will get eliminated and we will continue with CASE II and the arrangement will look like this: E faces the same direction as D     faces which is opposite to that of F. As per this statement, the final arrangement will look like this: CASE II:
