1) Avinash got 7th lowest rank (It means 2nd rank).
2) Aarohi got 4th lowest rank (i.e. 5th rank).
3) Aarohi got higher rank than Amar.
4) Abhi got higher rank than Amar but lesser rank than Aarohi.

Case 2:$
________ > Avinash > ________ > $________$ > Aarohi > Abhi > $________$ > Amar$
Case 3:$
________ > Avinash > ________ > $________ > Aarohi > ________$ > Abhi > Amar$
5) Only three students got higher ranks than Aditi.
6) Amitesh got less rank than Amar.
(Case 2 and 3 will be eliminated here.)
7) Anup got the higher rank than Amit.
8) Aditi did not get the highest or lowest rank.
Final Arrangement:
Anup > Avinash > Amit > Aditi > Aarohi > Abhi > Amar > Amitesh
Hence, 4 students got higher rank than Aarohi.
