    36 years

    Explanation

    Let present ages of Sushanth = w, Krish = x, Rishi = y and Rohit = z , then w + x + y = 43 x 3 = 129 ---(i) and w + y + z = 49 x 3 = 147 ---(ii) Subtracting (i) from (ii), (w+y+z) - (w+x+y) = 147 - 129 , z - x = 18 ---(iii) Given Rohit's age=z=54, so from (iii), x = 54 - 18 = 36. Therefore, Krish age is 36 years.
