Pointing to a boy, Sunita says, "He is the son of my husband's only sister's brother." Her husband has no other sibling than that sister and one brother, and the brother is the boy's father. How is the boy related to Sunita?
The boy is Sunita's nephew. He is the son of her husband's brother, who is Sunita's brother-in-law, so the boy is her husband's nephew and therefore her nephew.

Explanation
Sunita's husband's only sister's brother is the husband himself or his other brother. Since the husband has one brother who is the boy's father, the boy is the son of her husband's brother. A husband's brother is Sunita's brother-in-law, so his son is her nephew. The boy is not her son as he is not the child of Sunita's husband.
