Akhil, Bunty, Charan, Dhavan, Esha and Farhan live on different floors in the same building having six floors numbered one to six (the ground floor is numbered 1, the floor above it, numbered 2 and so on and the topmost floor is numbered 6).
Akhil lives on the second floor. There are two floors between the floors on which Dhavan and Farhan live. Farhan lives on the floor above Dhavan’s floor. Dhavan lives on a floor immediately above or below the floor on which Akhil lives. Bunty doesn’t live on the odd numbered floor. Charan does not live on any of the floors below Farhan’s floor. Farhan doesn’t live on the top floor.
