(Note: Since there is a gap of only half-steps between E and Fas well
            as between B and C, there are no other notes between these two notes,
            there is no way to omit notes here.)

            (e)  Now skip the Tivra Ma (F#) and move one note up to Pa (G).

            (f)  Leave the Kamal Dha (Ab) and move one note up to ShuddhaDha
                  (A).

            (g)  Leave the Komal Ni (Bb) and move one note up to ShuddhaNi (B).

            (h)  Since there is  no other note between Ni (B)  and Sa (C), move
                  directly up to Sa (C).
