Discussion:

Section 5 Limitation Act applies to matters other than a Suit or an application for execution.
Therefore, the delay cannot be condoned under the Limitation Act as Section 3 provides for an absolute restraint.

So far as, Section 148 CPC is concerned, it will come into play to only if the time limit is prescribed under CPC itself and not otherwise. Since, the time period to file an execution application is concerned, the same is provided in Limitation Act.
therefore, again delay cannot be condoned under section 148 CPC

Now coming to 151 CPC, it has to be invoked to protect the interest of justice and not to counter any specific provision of law or to anything against the settled notion of law. therefore, again the delay cannot be condoned.

Therefore, the answer has to be (D) i.e. the delay cannot be condoned
