Explanation:

- Under the Trade Unions Act, 1926, for a trade union to be registered, it must have at least 10% of the workmen engaged in the industry or 100 workmen, whichever is less, as its members.

- The establishment employs 1100 workmen, so a union needs at least 100 members for registration.

- Union A: 100 members - Meets the minimum requirement.

- Union B: 370 members - Exceeds the minimum requirement.

- Union C: 110 members - Meets the requirement.

- Union D: 275 members - Exceeds the minimum requirement.

- Union E: 80 members - Does not meet the minimum requirement.

Therefore, only Unions A, B, C, and D qualify for registration.
