The correct answer is

North-West

Place R at origin. Punit walks 10 km west to A(-10, 0). Facing west, a right turn points him north; 12 km takes him to B(-10, 12). Facing north, another right turn points him east; 7 km takes him to C(-3, 12).

Net displacement from R: 3 km west and 12 km north. Both components lie in the North-West quadrant, so Punit is North-West of R.
