C. The suit is barred by limitation under all circumstances.
Explanation:
Section 18 of the Limitation Act, 1963, deals with the effect of acknowledgment in writing. If an acknowledgment of liability is made in writing before the expiration of the prescribed period for a suit or application, a fresh period of limitation shall be computed from the time when the acknowledgment was so signed. Since the last date was Sunday, and the acknowledgment was given on Monday (the next working day), it would extend the limitation period, making Section 18 applicable.
