C Correct answer
Explanation

Let Rahul's present age = R. After 18 years: R + 18 = 2R - 6, so R = 24. Gokul's present age = G. After 39 years: G + 39 = 2.5 × 24 = 60, so G = 21. Suresh's present age = S. Given S:G = 4:3, so S/21 = 4/3, S = 28. Suresh's age 8 years hence = 28 + 8 = 36. This is option C.
