Observe what is given in the problem,

1____________________2_________________3___________________4
A A
B B B
C C C
D

Among them three people told truth and only one person told lie.
If we say A is telling lie then he is 1st or 4th. but if A is telling lie then either B OR D also telling lie.
If we say B is telling lie then he should be 4th. but D is also telling that he is 4th.

Now,
If we say D is telling lie then he should be 2nd or 3rd.
B will be 1st.
C will be 4th.
On 2nd either A OR D
on 3rd either A OR D.
In this condition only three people can tell truth and one can tell lie.

Therefore C will be 4th.
