Solution

N-acylation of aniline will take place and acetanilide is form.

Figure

Now nitration of acetanilide will take place and para nitro acetanilide is formed as major product.

Figure

Now this para nitro acetanilide on hydrolysis gives para nitro aniline as major product.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
