This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2017 (Tier 1) Previous Year Paper (16-Aug-2017) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Sister

Decode the clue: "Her mother's only grandson is my son" means the lady's mother has exactly one grandson, and that grandson is Diwakar's son.

Since the lady is unmarried, she has no son. So her mother's grandson must come from the lady's sibling. For that grandson to be Diwakar's son, Diwakar himself must be the lady's brother (the only male child of her mother who produced the grandson).

Hence the lady is Diwakar's sister.
