Since Neha was in the same team as Ileana and Katrina, and as per (e), they had to be in the four member team only.

As per (b), Oviya could not be with Neha, Ileana and Katrina

As per (c), Helen could not be with Neha, Ileana and Katrina

As per (e), there were only two vacant slots in the team with three members, as Jaya had to be one of them

Also, as per (d), Lara and Madhuri were together

So, if Lara and Madhuri were in the team of two, Oviya and Helen were in the team of three with Jaya

However, if Lara and Madhuri were in the team of three with Jaya, Oviya and Helen were in the team of two

Hence, Oviya had to be in the same team as Helen
