First and second statements are correct while Third statement is incorrect. The University of Bombay and the Bombay High Court are typical examples of Neo-Gothic architecture. The Gothic Revival style is part of the mid-19th century picturesque and romantic movement in architecture, reflecting the public's taste for buildings inspired by medieval design. This was a real departure from the previously popular styles that drew inspiration from the classical forms of ancient Greece and Rome. Neoclassical architecture is an architectural style produced by the neoclassical movement that began in the mid-18th century. It was a style of ancient Rome and it was introduced by British in India as due to its Mediterranean origins it was also suitable for the tropical climate. Neoclassical architecture is characterized by grandeur of scale, simplicity of geometric forms, Greek—especially Doric (see order)—or Roman detail, dramatic use of columns, and a preference for blank walls. The new taste for antique simplicity represented a general reaction to the excesses of the Rococo style.
