C Correct answer
Explanation

Monsoons first enter India through Kerala in early June (around June 1), hitting the Western Ghats. This is why Kerala celebrates 'Thiruvathira' marking monsoon arrival. Tamil Nadu gets rain later (northeast monsoon), Assam gets it simultaneously from the Bay of Bengal branch, and Andhra receives rainfall after Kerala.
