Why each option

The gpresult command displays the Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) for a computer or user, showing exactly which Group Policy Objects have been received and applied from the domain.

Aipconfig

ipconfig displays TCP/IP network configuration such as IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway; it provides no information about Group Policy.

Bnetstat

netstat shows active network connections, listening ports, and routing tables; it does not report on applied Group Policy settings.

CgpresultCorrect

gpresult queries and reports the complete set of Group Policy Objects that have been applied to the local computer and the currently logged-on user, including settings inherited from domain, site, and organizational unit levels. It is the primary tool for verifying that a domain-joined machine has received its intended network policies. Running 'gpresult /r' gives a summary, while '/h report.html' produces a detailed HTML report.

Dnslookup

nslookup queries DNS servers to resolve hostnames and IP addresses; it has no relationship to Group Policy application status.
