Answer: (D) The Award was bestowed upon him in Delhi on 14 December 2015

Answer as of 2016 — this may have changed since.

The source key gives (D) — meaning the Padma Vibhushan was not bestowed on Dilip Kumar on 14 December 2015 in Delhi. Dilip Kumar (Muhammad Yusuf Khan) was born in Peshawar (B is correct), received Padma Vibhushan in 1991 (A is correct), and acted in Devdas, Mela, Naya Daur (C is correct).
