The correct answer is

NQGPR

The letters are coded by shifting two positions backward for consonants and one position forward for vowels. Following this rule for 'POINT':

For coding:

Odd-position letters: Shift backward by 2.
Even-position letters: Shift forward by 2.
POINT →

P → N (odd, -2)
O → Q (even, +2)
I → G (odd, -2)
N → P (even, +2)
T → R (odd, -2)
POINT → NQGPR.
