Here we have, S lives on an even number floor. Three persons live between S and the one who likes cream. The one who likes chocolates lives immediately below the one who likes cream. Here we get two possibilities. 
Again we have, R likes Black but does not live below S. Two persons live between R and the one who likes Blue. 
Again we have, P likes red and lives immediately above T. T does not like blue. Q neither likes Blue nor lives adjacent to the one who likes Blue and S. 
Case-II and case-II (q) get eliminated because no space left for P. Again we have, Person who likes Pink lives immediately above U. Person who likes Pink does not live adjacent to R. V does not like White.
