Looking at a man, Seema says, 'His sister is the only daughter of my mother's father.' How is the man related to Seema?

The man is Seema's maternal uncle. The only daughter of Seema's mother's father is Seema's own mother. Since the man's sister is Seema's mother, he is her mother's brother, which makes him Seema's maternal uncle.

Explanation

Seema's mother's father's only daughter is Seema's mother herself. So the man's sister is Seema's mother. The brother of Seema's mother is her maternal uncle. Brother would be wrong as he is not Seema's parent's child.
